use /etc/pki/pure-ftpd for ssl cert storage
Comment 4 Aurelien Bompard 2005-08-01 20:26:13 UTC 
That makes sense, I've applied the patch. Rebuild underway.
Comment 5 Jose Pedro Oliveira 2005-08-04 03:57:27 UTC 
Sniff!

Do we really need to build pure-ftpd feature complete?  In my case (mostly
anonymous public servers) it would mean to install the mysql and postgres
libraries (among other possible deps).

Yum output:
...
Updating:
 pure-ftpd               i386       1.0.20-3.fc4     extras            226 k
Installing for dependencies:
 mysql                   i386       4.1.12-2.FC4.1   updates-released  2.8 M
 perl-DBI                i386       1.48-4           base              571 k
 postgresql-libs         i386       8.0.3-1          base              180 k
...


Would it be possible to do something like in vim and create the following
packages (package names not mandatory):
  * pure-ftpd-common
  * pure-ftpd-minimal   (minimal features as in pure-ftpd-1.0.20-2.fc3)
  * pure-ftpd-enhanced  (or full) (build feature complete)

Note: it will be tricky to be have both daemons installed (minimal and
enhanced/full).

Any thoughts,
jpo
Comment 6 Aurelien Bompard 2005-08-04 07:55:04 UTC 
Well, the problem is that the package can't be split, it's really compilation
options. There can't be a pure-ftpd-common, it's not plugin-based.
At least it only means installing the libs, not the servers...

I'll ask upstream for a plugin system, but it looks to me like pure-ftpd was
designed for FreeBSD.

If someone has another option...
Comment 7 Ronny Buchmann 2005-08-04 17:35:33 UTC 
Principally the package could be split, but that would mean conflicting packages
(or an even bigger mess), I'm not sure if this would be acceptable for extras.

pure-ftpd-common:
 utilities, docs

pure-ftpd-minimal:
 daemon (minimal compile options)
 config

pure-ftpd-full:
 daemon (feature complete)
 config

pure-ftpd-ldap

Jose, why don't you use vsftpd?
Comment 8 Jose Pedro Oliveira 2005-08-04 19:52:59 UTC 
Reply to  question of comment #7

Because I have been using it since since version 0.9x (0.97 or 0.99: don't
remember which) and it fulfilled all my needs (and was much easier to setup than
wu_ftpd or proftpd). Also IIRC vsftpd only appeared several years later.
