Its really dissapointing that Debian is stuck with 1.5.19 as their "stable" version. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper

Shall be dealth with for the next debian stable. Anyway, I will ask the 1.5.x maintainer if it would be ok to remove it from Debian stable (otherwise, we will ship both 1.5 and 2.1). James, I suggest you get Cyrus 2.1 from http://people.debian.org/~hmh/, you will be much better off on the long run. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

RE: Debian woody imap
I wouldn't mind upgrading to the testing version of Debian.. but what other migration pains would be involved? 'Cause I doubt it would be as simple as changing /etc/apt/sources.list from stable to testing, apt-get update; dselect update, apt-get -u dist-upgrade... I'm not even sure what version of cyrus-imap testing is using. If anyone has any experience please let me know. Thank you!!!
