Description Mark Sobell 2006-02-27 00:47:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
The script at
/usr/share/doc/dovecot-1.0/examples/mkcert.sh
generates errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.sh /usr/share/doc/dovecot-1.0/examples/mkcert.sh
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Various, depending on whether you set SSLDIR and which working directory you run
it from. See attached file.

I works properly if you set SSLDIR and cd to the proper directory:

# export SSLDIR=/etc/pki/dovecot
# cd /etc/pki/dovecot


Expected results:
Should run without errors when run without setting SSLDIR and when run from any
location.

Ping? Petr, you seem to have updated to 1.0rc7 a few days ago. This quick patch
would have been a welcome change, as it fixes this issue and would allow to
close this FC6Blocker bug.
Comment 5 Petr Rockai 2006-10-04 10:45:05 UTC 
Sorry, i must have overlooked this. I have no idea why it is a blocker though, 
it is just a documentation issue -- the script is installed 
under /usr/share/doc/. It does not affect functionality of the package in any 
way and self-signed certificates are generated by scriptlets anyway.

Either way, i have fixed this in CVS.
Comment 6 Tomas Janousek 2006-12-21 12:33:59 UTC 
Fixed in FC-5 CVS as well, will push update soon or later.
