in 1.2.x, specifying
./configure ... --sysconfdir=/path/to/dir ...
correctly results in dovecot.conf looked for as "/path/to/dir/
dovecot.conf".
in 2.0, dovecot incorrectly creates a dovecot dir in the sysconfdir,
and looks for,
/path/to/dir/dovecot/dovecot.conf
This is intended, because there are now lots of config files by
default. Or should this be done somehow differently? Anyway the point
is that just doing "./configure" should still access /usr/local/etc/
dovecot/dovecot.conf.
2.0's behavior should be made consistent with the correct
implementation in 1.2.x, or clarified as different in --help/docs.
I don't think it's possible to change --help's text. As for other
docs.. I'm not really sure how I should even start describing all the
v2.0 changes and where.. The v2.0's changed configuration is going to
break so many wiki pages..
