Hi,
I'm new to the list, but I saw in the archive that just a few days ago
someone asked about Debian packages of QmailToaster. I may be able to
assist with that too.
I'm currently doing something brute that will result in debian
packages when I'm done, but I was wondering if there's a better way to
do it. So I'm asking:
Is there a source code repository with the sources before they become
.src.rpm files? I could use that more efficiently than unpacking the
.src.rpm files on the website in my quest for QmailToaster for Debian.
I'm looking for something like a SubVersioN (SVN) repository, or a
Mercurial (HG) repository that you use. That's because the source code
should already be in unpacked form in there, and if it is, I can
easily create the Debian part because, compared to RedHat's spec
files, creating Debian packages is a piece of cake.
Some packages are already in Debian: daemontools (source), ucspi-tcp
(source, Debian only, not in Ubuntu), clamav, spamassassin, and I
think we can use those as they are, but the rest of the packages have
to be created.
It is my opinion that QmailToaster is the most complete Qmail
compilation out there. Life with Qmail, QmailRocks, Schupp, they all
miss at least one part that I need (for example SMTP AUTH or, worse,
the ability to reject messages to nonexisting accounts instead of
bouncing something back after the fact). I've been using QmailToaster
on Fedora so far, but I'm a Debian fellow myself and I'd like to see
QmailToaster on Debian/Ubuntu too.

we should keep all packages from qmailtoaster for easier support, I have
been caught with something and didn't have time to read about packaging
deb files, anyhow I'm determined to do it as soon as I have time for it
