From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: dovecot has a start priority of 54, named has 55, an argument can be made that dovecot is at least two off (cyrus-imapd has 65 as a comparison). One bad scenario this creates: In the case where someone uses the host address to explicitly specify the listen address (imap_listen and/or imaps_listen for example) dovecot will fail to start. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dovecot-0.99.10.5-0.FC2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set imap_listen to a hostname resolvable only once named has started (like in a local caching nameserver, etc). Additional info:
O.K. - moved the numbers to 65 35 to match cyrus-imapd, for what its worth postfix and sendmail are 80 30. I didn't add any logic to the %post script to try and move the symlinks if dovecot had already been installed, a chkconfig --del followed by a --add should fix it for any previously installed packages.
Reassigning to RHEL4.
