dovecot - Feb 2006 - "undefined reference to `yes_storage'"

Well after the 'issues' with Compaq C, I decided to attempt compile
using
GCC-3.4.3... To put it short, that didn't fair well either.  Will L G.

Redhat 7.2 [Alpha]
GCC 3.4.3
Binutils-2.16.x
Kernel-2.6.13.4

as much as i don't want to spark a distro war, perhaps you might
consider migrating to a distro that supports alpha actively? (like
gentoo?)

I think you used the configure-option "--with-storages" without any
parameters
so that it is equal to "--with-storages=yes". In this case
"yes" is not a
valid option, because configure expects something like "maildir,mbox".

Configure generates mail-storage-register.c itselfs by the parameters given 
for this option (by default this is "maildir,mbox") - just skip this
option
und run configure again - this should fix your problem.

For example, my mail-storage-register.c looks like this:

[------>------]
/* this file automatically generated by Makefile */
#include "lib.h"
#include "mail-storage.h"
extern struct mail_storage maildir_storage;
extern struct mail_storage mbox_storage;
void mail_storage_register_all(void) {
mail_storage_class_register(&maildir_storage);
mail_storage_class_register(&mbox_storage);
}
[------<------]
