I upgraded dovecot yesterday to > 0.99.14-r1, although dovecot --version still claims to be 0.99.14 I don't know how to fix your problem (sorry); just wanted to mention that the reason that the version is still claimed to be 0.99.14 is because it *is* 0.99.14-- usually revisions (-r#) relate to the *ebuild* being revised, not the program. If the program is itself revised, upstream changes the version number most of the time; for example to 0.99.15, indicating a relatively minor release update. This is a good thing, because if the source has changed, you will then have to download a new tarball due to the new release number, whereas if Gentoo revised an updated tarball with an -r1, you would probably miss the changes, because the old tarball would still be in /distfiles/ and Portage would not think it had to download a new one. Good luck with solving the issue with the program itself. Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
