Already in openSUSE 12.1 the fam service does not work. This remains the same in 12.2. The family of courier packages depends on this service. The alternative is to use dovecot, which does not need the fam service.
So I propose to drop the family of courier and fam packages from the openSUSE distribution.
Does gamin work, and if so, can these packages use it?
Don't know. When installing courier also fam is installed, because it depends on it. However there is no dependency on rpcbind also not from fam. In looked into the init.d folder and found that rpcbind provides the service portmap and rpcbind, which must be started for the fam service. Giving the command "chkconfig -a fam" one gets a proper error message that the portmap service has not been enabled. However "systemctl enable fam.service" does not give that error message when the service rpcbind.service has not been enabled. Should I make a bug report about this? -- fr.gr.
