1 Greets,
2
3 does anyone have experience with cyrus-imapd on gentoo?
4
5 I have to migrate an ancient suse-10.1-server, it runs:
6
7 # rpm -qa | grep cyrus
8 cyrus-sasl-2.1.21-3
9 cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.21-3
10 cyrus-imapd-2.2.12-13
11
12 portage gives me cyrus-imapd-2.4.12 which is fine but I don't know if
13 upgrading this far is possible without problems.
14
15 I found the OSSDL-overlay, but cyrus-imapd-2.2.13 fails to build ...
16
17 * does anyone have experience with upgrading cyrus-imapd?
18
19 * does anyone have a running older release/ebuild where the migration
20 should be safe?
21
22 pls no advice to use dovecot etc, the job here is to possibly move over
23 /var/spool/imap and "press play" (simplified, you get the picture).
24
25 A change of software might be considered later, right now I have to
26 maintain a running server while moving to newer hardware and OS.
27
28 Thanks, Stefan
