No probably about it A.J. Duplication was rife.
But there was a whole lot of overhead as well, 
including library files which where apparently
only Deb specific.

As to the package system, well preventing it from
updating stuff you don't want it too can be a trial!
Even updating the underlying o/s can sometimes add
stuff you don't really need.

Re: [vchkpw] Compile error - version 5.2.1

[Chris Pugh]

I'm using 5.2.1. also on Deb Woody 3. 

Characters you mention are definitely not there, but
.. compilation proceeds normally, with no 
errors!

[vchkpw] Vpopmail (5.2.1 and 5.3.20) won't compile on debian sarge ?!

[Florian Schie?l]

Hi list!

I get the followinbg errors while trying to compile vpopmail (5.2.1 and
5.3.20) on my debian sarge (testing), using this config: ./configure
--enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/bin/tcprules
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp:

...
gcc  -g -O2 -Wall  -o vipmap  vipmap.o libvpopmail.a   -lnsl -lcrypt
gcc -I. -Icdb  -g -O2 -Wall -c vdominfo.c
gcc  -g -O2 -Wall  -o vdominfo  vdominfo.o libvpopmail.a  -lnsl -lcrypt
gcc -I. -Icdb  -g -O2 -Wall -c vconvert.c
In file included from vconvert.c:32:
vmysql.h:50:22: missing terminating " character

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vpopmail-5.3.20'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Or for 5.2.1
...
gcc -I. -Icdb  -g -O2 -Wall -c vipmap.c
gcc  -g -O2 -Wall  -o vipmap  vipmap.o libvpopmail.a   -lnsl -lcrypt

In file included from vconvert.c:35:

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Any hints?
