dovecot - Aug 2005 - dovecot-lda compilation problem and feature request

Hi!

I tried to compile deliver from CVS (as described in the wiki), but
unfortunately make stopped with the following error:


In file included from sieve_interface.h:37,
                 from script.h:31,
                 from addr.y:34:
sieve_err.h:7:24: et/com_err.h: No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [addr.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/usr/local/src/dovecot/dovecot-lda-CVS/src/libsieve'make[2]: ***
[all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/dovecot/dovecot-lda-CVS/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/dovecot/dovecot-lda-CVS'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any suggestions how to fix this?


And a second question about deliver:
Is it possible to use a system wide default sieve script which applies
to all users that do not have their own sieve script?
That would be a great feature to easily set up (and maintain) some
defaults for virus/spam filtering. Maildrop does it like this ;-)


Thanks,

Michael

You haven't mentioned which platform/distribution you are using, however for
me the et/com_err.h header file is a part of the e2fsprogs-devel package...
Quite _why_ that file is needed I'm not sure, but that's beside the
point ;-)

Glad to see someone reading the wiki, many thanks to Tomi Hakala and others 
who have worked on getting some great information up on the LDA page - 
http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/LDA for those who haven't yet seen.

I have that in comerr-dev Debian package. A bit useless include file 
though, maybe I'll get rid of it..

I could do that, except compiling the .sievec file could be problematic 
if user doesn't have permission to that directory.

Added global_script_path setting. That should do it.
