Bug#422543: roundcube: Missing dependencies

2007-05-06 Thread Jose Luis Tallon
Package: roundcube
Version: 0.1~beta2.2~dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

Roundcube does not depend (not even recommends!) any IMAP client extension.
Therefore, it is unusable until the user manually installs one. The error
messages given by roundcube itself (both at the frontpage and within the
logs) are not that helpful.

The solution: to depend on php5-imap | php4-imap in addition to the
current dependencies.


I have tested it on a couple servers already, same behaviour.
Please note that my own roundcube package does depend on php5-imap and works
out-of-the box in the same system (I don't have time to maintain it
properly, otherwise, I would have uploaded it quite some time ago)


Thanks,

J.L.

Well, just tested it here, php5-imap does not seem to be needed.. Hence, I 
don't understand your bug could you specify step to reproduce it ?

How does Roundcube connect to the IMAP server if not via the php5-imap |
php4-imap extension? (just curious this time)
AFAICR, they haven't implemented a full IMAP client in PHP, have they?


Even in that case, Roundcube would fail to authenticate users without
the php5-imap extension :-|
Any ideas on that ?

Just install on a newly installed server (including libapache2-mod-php5
in the same command line, since it wasn't even installed)

Logon attempts would fail repeteadly before I installed php5-imap.

Moreinfo: I obviously have 'imapproxy' installed (it would be a nice
recommends, don't you think?) -- might it be some kind of interaction
between roundcube's client and that ?

I will have to dig in the logs, but I seem to remember seeing some odd
messages.

Thanks.
