SRU: dovecot-antispam Incompatible

[Jonathan Fosburgh]

dovecot-antispam needs a no-change rebuild against dovecot in lucid.
It currently does not load the plugin.

TESTCASE:
** On Lucid **

# apt-get install dovecot-antispam

This installs dovecot as well.

Open /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf, find the line inside imap { ... } saying "#mail_plugins = ", uncomment and change into
 "mail_plugins = antispam".

# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

# useradd dctest -m
 # passwd dctest
  > test
  > test

# telnet localhost 143
 > a01 login dctest test
 Connection closed by foreign host.

# grep antispam /var/log/mail.log
 Nov 5 13:34:02 test.intux dovecot: IMAP(dctest): Module is for different version 1.1.11: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib90_antispam_plugin.so

Expected:
no such error.

original report:
On amd64 (lucid) the dovecot-antispam filter fails with the following error:

[bjoh (jb-5pm)]

Also affects i386 build.

There does not seem to be a version with matching dovecot in Debian.
Please rebuild with correct header files.

[Karoly Molnar (karoly-molnar)]

The date of the binary package is Nov 9, 2009. I rebuilt the package without changing anything on the source package and after installation the error message does not appear anymore. So I guess we just need to trigger a rebuild. Any MOTU around to do that?

[Karoly Molnar (karoly-molnar)]

As I see the package in its current form is not too useful since it provides the mailtrain backend only. If one wants the dspam or crm backend one needs to compile it for itself. Ideally there should be packages built from the source for the different backends:
dovecot-antispam-dspam - direct dspam training by calling dspam executable
dovecot-antispam-signature-log - signature logging using dovecot's dict API
dovecot-antispam-mailtrain - send mail to special addresses for training
dovecot-antispam-crm114 - direct crm114 training by calling mailreaver.crm

I'll see if I can spare the time to do it

[Tobias Dussa (tobias-launchpad-dussa)]

Is any maintainer listening in on this bug? Could someone responsible please trigger a rebuild? After all, this is an LTS release!

[reliable-robin-22 (nicolasdiogo)]

is anybody listening to this bug.

it is down as new and unassigned.

this problem has been around for a while already and nobody is working to fix it.

surely, email server is something important on our days.

with regards,

Nicolas

[Rainer Klaffenboeck (rainer-klaffenboeck)]

this also affects maverick 32-bit

[hads (hads)]

I can confirm this.

Though the description of this bug is not quite correct, as has been commented already it effects all arch

For the moment you can workaround with the following;

apt-get source dovecot-antispam
cd dovecot-antispam-1.2+20090702
dpkg-buildpackage
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i dovecot-antispam_1.2+20090702-1_i386.deb

(the build package depends on your arch).

[Bart Verwilst (verwilst)]

Is there really not a single person with 3 minutes time to spend to just recompile this package and be done with it?? The time it took to mark the other bug as a duplicate was enough to do this.

[FloSoft (flosoft)]

same on maverick

[Lars (lars-taeuber)]

Please change the importance to high, because it prevents a LTS version from being used as a dovcot IMAP server on a larger setup.

And the solution seems quite simple.

Thanks.
Lars

[Petr E. Antonov (antpeter)]

Please provide the current status of this bug.

[beniwtv (beniwtv-deactivatedaccount)]

Still an issue on Lucid, as Lars pointed out.

[Bart Verwilst (verwilst)]

To reproduce:

** On Lucid **

# apt-get install dovecot-imap

This installs dovecot as well.

Open /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf, find the line inside imap { ... } saying "#mail_plugins = ", uncomment and change into
"mail_plugins = antispam".

# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

# useradd dctest -m
# passwd dctest
 > test
 > test

# telnet localhost 143
> a01 login dctest test
Connection closed by foreign host.

# grep antispam /var/log/mail.log
Nov 5 13:34:02 test.intux dovecot: IMAP(dctest): Module is for different version 1.1.11: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib90_antispam_plugin.so

A simple recompile of the package solve this issue.

[Bart Verwilst (verwilst)]

Arg, above it should be "apt-get install dovecot-antispam", not "dovecot-imap"!

[Stefano Rivera (stefanor)]

Uploaded a no-change rebuild to lucid-proposed. Pending SRU team review.

As the same version was published in natty and maverick, I'd better upload SRUs there too.

[Stefano Rivera (stefanor)]

Oneiric and precise are not affected, thanks to bug #831121, which means it isn't published in oneiric, and is fixed in precise.

Hello Jonathan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dovecot-antispam into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

[beniwtv (beniwtv-deactivatedaccount)]

Hi Martin,

This is for natty, but not for lucid, which is the problem we are having. Could you upload this also to lucid-proposed?

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

It was already accepted into lucid-proposed yesterday, see comment 18.

[beniwtv (beniwtv-deactivatedaccount)]

Hi Martin,

Sorry for the confusion, yesterday the package was not yet available on the mirror. Today I installed it from -proposed and it is working as intended.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Thanks for testing!

Verified on maverick and natty i386
