Also the description of this ppa warns to use these packages only if you're able to help youself and it's a development ppa. But I have had no problems yet with these packages. I think there aren't packages out there someone would provide support for. So, compile it or use those development/ community packages or wait until dovecot 2.1 will get into debian/ubuntu stable.

To wind up in Debian stable, a package has to go through a bunch of testing, and that takes a long time. So you're never going to have official packages for new software in Debian stable. That's kind of the point of stable =)

As I understand, questioner asks for official ones. As a matter of fact - there are none for stable. You can try to use it from testing with apt pinning and package priorities. For example: /etc/apt/apt.conf or /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99stable: APT::Default-Release "stable"; /etc/apt/preferences.d/dovecot Package: dovecot* Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 999 and use "apt-policy show dovecot-" to check. Testing packages still receives a lot of changes, so it will be a little bit annoying for frequent updates. Let me know if you choose that way and if it works for you. -- Sincerely, Nerijus Kislauskas

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.1 stable packages for Debian?
Hello all, it is strange, but Dovecot 2.x still didn't make it into Debian (not even backports). It exists in testing, but that's still a long wait. OTOH there are official packages built every day (referenced from the download page). This puzzles me: why isn't there a build created from each stable, released version of Dovecot, so that users of Debian Stable could benefit from the new version, and run it on production environment? Could you (I mean — the Dovecot team) provide such packages? This wouldn't require any major amount of work, since you already have daily builds produced. You would just have to run that building system once per each released version and keep it available for download. The reason for this is relatively simple: I'm about to implement a new mail server, and I'd like to keep to Debian Stable while using Dovecot 2.x. This will make future updates much easier, as I won't have to face 1.2 -> 2.0 migration on a production system. Regards, KT
