Hello, |
2 |
I'm using Courier-IMAP, Courier-Auth, Postfix+SASL and storing users in |
3 |
a PostgreSQL database. My database is on another machine so I don't |
4 |
think I should have to install dev-db/postgresql but I must for some |
5 |
reason. |
6 |
|
7 |
I can see that the packages need postgresql |
8 |
lithium ~ # emerge -pv courier-authlib postfix cyrus-sasl |
9 |
|
10 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |
11 |
|
12 |
Calculating dependencies ...done! |
13 |
[ebuild R ] net-libs/courier-authlib-0.57-r1 -berkdb +crypt -debug |
14 |
+gdbm -ldap -mysql +pam +postgres 0 kB |
15 |
[ebuild R ] mail-mta/postfix-2.1.5-r2 -ipv6 -ldap -mailwrapper -mbox |
16 |
-mysql +pam +postgres +sasl (-selinux) +ssl -vda 0 kB |
17 |
[ebuild R ] dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20 -authdaemond -berkdb +gdbm |
18 |
-java -kerberos -ldap -mysql +pam +postgres +ssl -static 0 kB |
19 |
|
20 |
But equery doesn't show that courier-authlib depends on postgresql, even |
21 |
though it's one of the use flags. |
22 |
|
23 |
lithium ~ # equery depends postgresql |
24 |
[ Searching for packages depending on postgresql... ] |
25 |
dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20 |
26 |
mail-mta/postfix-2.1.5-r2 |
27 |
|
28 |
So if PostgreSQL server is on another machine why must I install it |
29 |
locally for postfix/cyrus-sasl to use it? Wasn't there talk awhile ago |
30 |
about some libpq package that should be used instead? I'm confused. I |
31 |
also don't want to have to put the postgresql full package on this server |
32 |
(it should run email stuff only). So what to do? |
33 |
|
34 |
TIA |
