I guess you get this question every day and twice on sundays, although
not on this list since ive checked the archives.


Now, the thing is, i cannot get to compile courier-imap (0.42.2, source
package as distributed in debian sarge. Courier latest stable vanilla
also fails the exact same way) with vpopmail (latest stable vanilla) in
debian  due to two things:

1.- Configure fails due to a missing /home/vpopmail/etc/lib_deps which
is just not there. I 'touch' it and configure continues

2.- After doing that, it fails when linking the vchkpwd auth stuff. This
happens even if i copy /home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a to /usr/lib. 

Im compling all this from the /usr/local/src directory with all the
flags in the debian package.... let me show you:

COMMON_CONFOPTS=--prefix=/usr --mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man \
                --with-piddir=/var/run/courier \
                --sysconfdir=/etc/courier \

                --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs \
                --with-authpam \
                --without-authpwd \
                --with-authmysql \

                --with-authpgsql \
                --with-pgsql-includes=/usr/include/postgresql \
                --with-pgsql-libs=/usr/lib \
                --without-authshadow \
                --with-authdaemonvar=/var/run/courier/authdaemon \
                --with-authcram \
                --with-db=gdbm \
                --without-fcgi \
                --with-htmllibdir=/usr/share/sqwebmail \
                --with-ispell=/usr/bin/ispell \
                --enable-imageurl=/sqwebmail \
                --with-mailer="/usr/sbin/sendmail" \
                --enable-sendmail="/usr/sbin/sendmail" \
                --with-cachedir=/var/cache/sqwebmail \
                --with-calendardir=/var/run/courier/calendar \
                --with-webadmindir=/usr/share/courier/webadmin \
                --enable-userdb \
                --enable-syslog=1 \
                --enable-unicode \
                --disable-root-check

As you can see, i took away the without-vchkpw directive so that it
correctly attempts to configure for vpopmail.

The courier people (from their ml archives) claim it all the vpopmail's
people fault, i think they can be pretty snotty but hey, its their imap
server....

So, any help would be greatly appreciated....
