Description Gene Alexander 2012-01-10 18:03:35 CET
SquirrelMail is our preferred webmail solution for our clients. This was in Mandriva 2010.2 and is not in Mageia 1. Unfortunately we only discovered this after doing a "wipe '/' and install mga1" on a client's server last night. We had to install SquirrelMail by hand from a *.tar.gz copy we had on a USB stick.

Since I used to maintain this package in MDV (somewhere in 2003-2004) I imported this into Cauldron.  If you want to use it on Mageia 1, you can rebuild the SRPM.  Now we just need to make sure this thing works, especially the plugins.
Comment 3 David Walser 2012-02-05 06:31:35 CET
Also in need of investigation is whether the additional dependencies added by the auto-dependency-generator during the build are really necessary.
Comment 4 Remco Rijnders 2012-02-27 07:34:51 CET
Hi David, Damien,

Can this package also be built as an update for Mageia 1? That way we can close this report and make Gene happy :-)

I'd like to get confirmation from someone that actually uses it that everything is good first.

Also, if it's going to ship in 1, and the added dependencies aren't needed, I'd like to address that first too (Comment 3).

Re-assigning to David. Thanks for the work.
Perhaps you can push it to 'testing' in order to have better feedbacks on the package...

Comment 8 David Walser 2012-03-17 20:15:43 CET
I fixed a couple of minor things and verified that the dependencies are legit.

squirrelmail-1.4.22-4 is now in Cauldron.

Comment 9 Gene Alexander 2012-06-21 19:19:52 CEST
As I have now transitioned all our end-users to Mageia 2, with the exception of two home PC systems, my need for this in Mageia 1 is moot. I can report that squirrelmail in Mageia 2 is working as it should. If Mageia 1 is going to be EOL on time, backporting this to Mageia 1 may not be necessary at this point. If someone still needs it in Mageia 1 then s/he needs to speak up I think. Otherwise, I believe this bug can be closed.
Comment 10 Manuel Hiebel 2012-06-21 19:25:23 CEST
Since you are the reporter I will close it thanks.

Sander, I started a new bug report for squirrelmail here: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6534

That shows one problem I found today doing a fresh install for another client. If you know of other problems you should probably start other reports for those as well. This bug, being for adding squirrelmail to Mageia 1, is probably not a good place for reporting bugs with the squirrelmail RPM.

Like I said above, "If someone still needs it in Mageia 1 then s/he needs to speak up I think." ;)
