guys , i m new to centos. i have learned to use yum and the priority plugin.
Does the atrpm repo provide the most up to date version of dovecot? i have
the following
repos configured ->epel and rpm forge besides thestandard
base,updates,addons,extras repos.
Atrpms is the most up to date version I have found so far, and it looks like
it is recently up to 1.1.11. They also have the 1.0 branch if you need it. I
usually leave it disabled and only enable it with the
"yum --enablerepo=atrpms update dovecot"
command when I want to update dovecot. It seems a little too "cutting edge"
for my tastes on a server.
Others are OK with it being enabled, so YMMV.
If you only want to pull dovecot from atrpms, add a includepkgs option
to the repo definition[1] and leave it enabled. You'll see dovecot
updates just like any other package without having to use the whole repo:
