I am a bit puzzled by this message. AFAIK fam means File Alteration Monitor 
and I fail to understand that a package called gaming has anything to do with 
that. Besides I can't find a package gaming in the oss or non-oss 
repositories. 

The fam package in 12.1 is broken, it does not start at all. I need it to run 
courier-imap and courier-imap-ssl, so 12.1 is not usable for me at the moment. 
AFAIK fam is rather closely related to courier, so replacing it with something 
else is probably not easy. So maybe I have to move to something which replaces 
courier, Dovecot?
