Dovecot v2.0 installs shared libraries, which are used by Dovecot binaries and can also be used for building Sieve binaries. v2.0 isn't anywhere close to release, but you could already try and see if it provides everything that's necessary to do a clean pkgsrc. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
[Dovecot] Sieve/ManageSieve integration into pkgsrc
I'm integrating Sieve (the new one) and ManageSieve into wip/dovecot. Currently, this works as dovecot options because dovecot must be built before sieve can be configured and sieve must be built before managesieve can be configured/built. Now, the question arose what the long-term solution (in pkgsrc) should be. To my understanding, with dovecot 2.0, ManageSieve will no longer need to patch dovecot. But what about both Sieve and ManageSieve depending on doevcot sources in order to build (or on libraries dovecot only builds internally)? The preferred way (for pkgsrc) would be if both Sieve and ManageSieve could be built as stand-alone packages and not needing a dovecot source tree to build.

See also http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-August/024504.html which enabled pkgsrc to build the dovecot-sieve plugin (the old one) against an installed dovecot instance with only liblib.a installed additionally.
