I’m currently trying to build the Debian experimental package,
plus a local diff to create a dbtool package, on Univention.
Not totally happy with it (Depends in the binary package are
empty), but then, the package from experimental sucks a little
anyway, so debdiff attached.

Maybe cyr_dbtool will run with our old databases/server?

Does the imapd need to be stopped during cyr_dbtool runs?


Hrm, probably not:

root at ugs:~ # /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/cyr_dbtool /var/lib/cyrus/annotations.db skiplist show                     
fatal error: wrong db version
Segmentation fault 


Any further ideas?

Thanks,

+Package: cyrus-dbtool-2.3
+Architecture: any
+Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlib:Depends}
+Description: Cyrus mail system (dbtool)
+ Cyrus is a fully-featured IMAP daemon, with a number of features not
+ found in other IMAP implementations, including:
+  o Designed to handle massive quantities of mail
+  o No need for users to have login accounts
+  o Virtual domain support
+  o Support for POP3 in addition to IMAP
+  o Sieve server-side email filtering
+  o Servers don't run as root
+  o Easy support for mail quotas
+  o SSL support, including secure IMAP
+  o DRAC support for pop/imap-before-smtp
+  o IPv6 support
+  o NNTP support
+ For more information, see http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/.
+ .
+ Note: Cyrus doesn't support reading from and storing mail in your 
+ standard mail spool - it stores mail in a separate directory in its
+ own MH-like format.
+ .
+ This package contains the cyr_dbtool.
