https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241937 Summary: Courier generates certificates in /usr/share/courier- imap Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: mskibbe@novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Courier in default configuration generates certificates for courier-pop3-ssl and courier-imap-ssl in /usr/share/courier-imap/ /etc/courier/pop3d-ssl{,.dist} contains TLS_CERTFILE=/usr/share/courier-imap/pop3d.pem /etc/courier/imapd-ssl{,.dist} contains TLS_CERTFILE=/usr/share/courier-imap/imapd.pem /usr might be mounted read-only according to FHS, and is not expected to contain variable or machine-specific data.

It currently explicitly does the following in imap/pop3d-ssl.dist.in: TLS_CERTFILE=@datadir@/pop3d.pem As you certainly know, @datadir@ is /usr/share and not /etc. They are writing @datadir@ here and not @sysconfig@. Please do not change it without asking the upstream authors or at least looking at how other distributors 'fix' this 'bug'. (Btw.: Assuming that patching this locally were a good idea, which it isn't, I do not think that these are config files; these are variable data files and therefore belong to /var, not /etc.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
