I am converting a Debian box running Postfix, Courier and MySQL to a
CentOS box running Postfix, Dovecot and MySQL. I have the Postfix with
MySQL support taken care of with the RPM from the centosplus repo. It
appears that the stock RPM for Dovecot comes with Postgres, but not
MySQL support.
It looks like I need to download the source RPM and then rebuild it with
MySQL support. Could someone outline the steps I need to do this or
point me to a good resource? I have not worked with source RPMs in the
past, but it looks like it is time to learn!
Also, if I build it from a source RPM, should I then exclude it from my
repos to keep a future update from overriding the one I built?
Thanks!
Jeffrey
