dovecot.conf kills update (conflicting file)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Guys,

	The dovecot update needs to be fixed. Currently, on upgrade you get:

checking package integrity...
(288/288) checking for file conflicts [#####################################] 100%
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
dovecot: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

which is a bit frustrating. I know we talked a little about fixing dovecot (and other packages that break if upgraded but not restarted) so I don't know if this is related (I thought the discussion/debate was whether to add a one-liner advising that a dovecot restart was required), but in any event, related or not, dovecot should update without failing due to the existing dovecot.conf

  Do I open a ticket or is this post enough?

I have asked this question of whether to open a ticket on every bug or whether little items like this are preferred to be worked from the list w/o a ticket opened at least 3 times now and I have never received an answer (I apologize if I have missed it). I want to help Arch the best way I can. If you want bugs opened on everything, let me know -- I'm happy to open them. If you can work an issue from the list, then at least let me know "I'll take it from here" so I know things are not being missed. Thanks.
