Subject: [gentoo-user] old cyrus-imapd from overlay
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2012 16:34:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F4CF416.80304@xunil.at> (raw)


Greets,

does anyone have experience with cyrus-imapd on gentoo?

I have to migrate an ancient suse-10.1-server, it runs:

# rpm -qa | grep cyrus
cyrus-sasl-2.1.21-3
cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.21-3
cyrus-imapd-2.2.12-13

portage gives me cyrus-imapd-2.4.12 which is fine but I don't know if
upgrading this far is possible without problems.

I found the OSSDL-overlay, but cyrus-imapd-2.2.13 fails to build ...

* does anyone have experience with upgrading cyrus-imapd?

* does anyone have a running older release/ebuild where the migration
should be safe?

pls no advice to use dovecot etc, the job here is to possibly move over
/var/spool/imap and "press play" (simplified, you get the picture).

A change of software might be considered later, right now I have to
maintain a running server while moving to newer hardware and OS.

Thanks, Stefan
