dovecot - Jul 2009 - Login Fails: epoll_ctl(1, 7): Operation not permitted

Working on setting up dovecot and having trouble logging in.
I get an error in logs (below) indicating Operation not Permitted.
auth_debug doesn't help.

Ideas?

# dovecot --version
1.1.7

# dovecot -n

I remember fixing something that caused this bug. Try upgrading.

Upgraded to 1.1.16(Unstable) and it seems to be working.
Thanks!

Now to go and find why Gentoo considers it unstable.

1.1.16 is available in ~, so add that to your package.keywords file...

But it looks like the gentoo > dovecot maintainer has gone missing... :(

Sorry, missed your reply...

Looks like it is unstable because the dovecot maintainer is awol...

Hopefully someone will pick it up soon...

This is simple ebuild diff, for dovecot version 1.2.0, if you want to try
1.2* branch.
You can simple made this ebuild working with 1.2.1 but be aware, that
compiling will fail with managesieve use flag enabled. Version 1.2.0 leaks
this problem.
