If you want to run Dovecot on Debian Lenny for a Production System (with
Fast Upgrade System for Security Patches),
What would you recommend?
Stick to the current port with Dovecot Version 1.0.15 (1:1.0.15-2.3)
This version is ancient. The last release is 13 months old. Many bugs
have been fixed since then. Definitely not recommended.
Use Backports Version 1.1.13 (1:1.1.13-2~bpo50+1)
With lack of a better packaged alternative I would recommend this one.
Dovecot v1.2.1 is already in Debian unstable, so it may end up in
testing and backports earlier than we think (i hope so).
or Use any of the packages from:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dovecot v1.1 for Debian Testing (binary and source):
deb http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto/dovecot-1.1 main
deb-src http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto/dovecot-1.1 main
Dovecot v1.2 for Debian Testing (binary and source):
deb http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto/dovecot-1.2 main
deb-src http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto/dovecot-1.2 main
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the WIKI states: do *NOT* use these packages for systems that need to
be *STABLE*! This is rebuilt every hour from repository commits from
Timo and myself and if/when one of us commits a mistake, your setup will
break accordingly upon upgrade. This is for testing purposes only.
