Title: dovecot-openrc: `/etc/conf.d/dovecot` needs backup array and default content.
Post by: dreieck on 09 June 2021, 09:10:49
Ahoj,

since I cannot register for https://gitea.artixlinux.org/ and I don't know about any other bug reporting system, I am reporting it here in the forum:


In the current situation, whenever `dovecot-openrc` gets updated, user made changes to `/etc/conf.d/dovecot` get overwritten, and `dovecot` won't start up anymore, since the initscript `/etc/init.d/dovecot` expects the environment variable `DOVECOT_CONF` to be set and passes `-c ${DOVECOT_CONF}` to the daemon, which will make the daemon fail to start if `DOVECOT_CONF` is empty.

Meaning: For now, on first install and after every update again `dovecot` fails to start up.

Regards!
