Greetings. In my spare time I've been working on getting Postfix 2.4.5 working with MacPorts, as well as getting TLS and SASL to work correctly (OpenSSL deps using system libraries instead of the ported version, leading to 0.9.7 vs 0.9.8 mismatch). The below portfile *works* correctly (with thanks to Mark Duling to helping me get this far!)-- the issue is that while I'm rather comfortable with Postifx, I'm quite certain I don't know enough about the MacPorts system to make it work in the proscribed manner. For instance, it isn't set up to use variants and whatnot, but the make arguments get passed correctly and it uses the proper dependencies. Can anyone lend a hand towards helping me polish this so that it can be published? The issues I see at the moment: jay-chandlers-computer:/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/mail/postfix jay$ sudo postfix start postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/local/var/spool/postfix postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by group postdrop: /opt/local/var/spool/postfix/public postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by group postdrop: /opt/local/var/spool/postfix/maildrop postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by group postdrop: /opt/local/sbin/postqueue postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by group postdrop: /opt/local/sbin/postdrop postfix/postfix-script: warning: not set-gid or not owner+group+world executable: /opt/local/sbin/postqueue postfix/postfix-script: warning: not set-gid or not owner+group+world executable: /opt/local/sbin/postdrop postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system That's simple enough to fix-- should just be a chown, I figure.
