Package: courier-authdaemon
Severity: wishlist
Hi
Automatically configuring courier-authdaemon is not policy compliant for
the moment as one needs to edit the mentioned conffile in the process.
A solution might be to include some file if it exists in
etc/courier/authdaemonrc...
Cheers
Luk

Hi Stefan,
could you please comment on this bug? It's really important for us to fix
#311188 for Lenny, so that upgrades from Lenny to Lenny+1 will work without
problems for Debian Edu installations.
Thank you.
regards,
Holger

What variables in /etc/courier/authdaemonrc do you need to change?

I've attached the cfengine file we use to modify the configuration. IMHO
cfengine syntax is straightforward to read and understand, if you do have any
question, please dont hesitate to ask, I'll happily explain every line if you
want me to :-)
(As I am the one wanting something from you. But I'm quite sure you can easily
figure it. But then, I do know cfengine since 7 years, so I might be
biased ;)

OK, my approach would be to include a file authdaemonrc.local at the end
of authdaemonrc (if it exists). The same for the other files like authldaprc.
What do you think about it?

Sounds good to me, esp. that you consider doing it for them all :)
Those are bash/perl/whatever scripts, so that variables defined in *.local
overwrite the others?

Hi Stefan,
the Lenny freeze is approaching fast, any ETA when you will be able to fix
this bug? We would really love to see it fixed in Lenny... also please shout

Shout :-). I guess that all we need is a patch to include a file authdaemonrc.local at the end
of authdaemonrc (if it exists) and a short note for the README.Debian.

I have just taken over maintaining courier-authdaemon. I
see this very old bug from the lenny transition. I assume
this has already been dealt with, but if not, can you confirm
this bug still exits in the current version of courier-
authdaemon?

I don't think this has been dealt with, as the bug is still open. :)

I guess I need some help to understand the scope of this bug report. The original email
states:
"Automatically configuring courier-authdaemon is not policy compliant for
the moment as one needs to edit the mentioned conffile in the process.”
1. In my case, I am running courier-authdaemon without modifying /etc/courier/
authdaemonrc. However, your scenario might be different, in which case I would like to
understand it.
2. There are a lot of packages that require modifying config files before they function
correctly, so I don’t understand what would make this not policy compliant even it were
the case.
