No, systemd isn't required. It's just that previously when Dovecot was compiled with systemd it used our built-in copy of some of the systemd code, while now it links to libsystemd. Even if Dovecot is compiled against libsystemd it doesn't require actually to use it. > the github release is still missing, true? > > git remote add -t release-2.3.15 origin https://github.com/dovecot/core > <https://github.com/dovecot/core> > #6 21.37 + git fetch '--depth=1' > #6 21.81 fatal: couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/release-2.3.15 Yeah, sorry, it took a while to push to github. It had been a long time since I last finished the release myself, so I was fighting with gpg signing the release tags before pushing to github. It had such helpful error messages like "gpg failed to sign the data", "signing failed: Invalid IPC response" and finally I got to "signing failed: No secret key" (pretty sure there was) after which I gave up and signed elsewhere.
