What replaces it as it is required?
Dovecot
I have/had dovecot installed when I went to xinitd to enable imaps and it still required the install of imaps and offered (I accepted) to automagically install the required package.
I don't have a /etc/xinetd.d/imap* file, dovecot does not install it. Are you trying to acivate imap in yast and that requires setting xinit's imap? That is a bug. Some suse devs say that wu-imap is crap, but yast mail configuration still sets it, it seems, with disastrous results (Bob). You can not currently use yast to configure imap mail - perhaps it is yast which is crap nowdays for trying to install crap :-P (kidding - reduction to the absurd)
Does the dovecot package need a bug report and should I remove the imaps package?
Yes, remove it. - -- Cheers. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk0KcLAACgkQtTMYHG2NR9WJXQCdE1CQE9/SsZFWMjOwDnqVB2Jp elMAn3PEChpCfRllQMt5Uihi4Czwue2h =U3AF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
