Re: [qmailtoaster] Qmail Toaster sources code repository?
I'm building my toaster packages with my own changes with a local installation of openSuSE Build Service (https://build.opensuse.org). It could be a great solution to easy build the packages for many distros. Just my 2 cts.

[qmailtoaster] Qmail Toaster sources code repository?
Hi, I'm new to the list, but I saw in the archive that just a few days ago someone asked about Debian packages of QmailToaster. I may be able to assist with that too. I'm currently doing something brute that will result in debian packages when I'm done, but I was wondering if there's a better way to do it. So I'm asking: Is there a source code repository with the sources before they become .src.rpm files? I could use that more efficiently than unpacking the .src.rpm files on the website in my quest for QmailToaster for Debian. I'm looking for something like a SubVersioN (SVN) repository, or a Mercurial (HG) repository that you use. That's because the source code should already be in unpacked form in there, and if it is, I can easily create the Debian part because, compared to RedHat's spec files, creating Debian packages is a piece of cake. Some packages are already in Debian: daemontools (source), ucspi-tcp (source, Debian only, not in Ubuntu), clamav, spamassassin, and I think we can use those as they are, but the rest of the packages have to be created. It is my opinion that QmailToaster is the most complete Qmail compilation out there. Life with Qmail, QmailRocks, Schupp, they all miss at least one part that I need (for example SMTP AUTH or, worse, the ability to reject messages to nonexisting accounts instead of bouncing something back after the fact). I've been using QmailToaster on Fedora so far, but I'm a Debian fellow myself and I'd like to see QmailToaster on Debian/Ubuntu too. -- Regards, Uplink - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
