Hey Finn, My test system is running CentOS 5.5. I didn't seem to have any problems compiling. The compile (make) did not error out. It is also up to date. I did 'make' dovecot-2.0.9 again to examine the output and found no errors, just warnings. Here's what I did on my test machine... # cd /my/dovecot/dir/dovecot-2.0.9 # make clean # make
These are the warnings I got when I ran 'make.' *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib02_imap_acl_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib01_acl_plugin.so is not portable! *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib21_fts_squat_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib20_fts_plugin.so is not portable! *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib20_mail_log_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib15_notify_plugin.so is not portable! *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib11_imap_quota_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib10_quota_plugin.so is not portable! *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib11_trash_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib10_quota_plugin.so is not portable! *** Warning: Linking the shared library lib30_imap_zlib_plugin.la against the loadable module *** lib20_zlib_plugin.so is not portable! I have the complete output in a text file. If your interested in seeing it.
