Lars, As I explained above, I don't think this bug can make any progress without the input of the upstream patch authors. The fixes look very complex to cherry-pick and so risk regression and/or failure to fix the problem for us if we try to backport the fix from Trusty. It needs someone already familiar with the code to advise us or for a skilled developer to spend time becoming familiar with the code. I don't expect the Ubuntu Server Team to make any further progress on this. Volunteers are welcome to prepare a backport, though note that the more complex the backport is, the less likely it is that an Ubuntu developer will be satisfied that it presents a sufficiently low risk of regression of regression to existing 14.04 dovecot users.
Note that this bug is believed fixed in Wily (15.10) , so it is just the Trusty (14.04) backport of the fix that we're talking about here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dovecot in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1332120 Title: panic error while backup mailboxes with doveadm backup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dovecot/+bug/1332120/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
