package uw-imap tag 478193 help thanks On Sun, Jun 08, 2008 at 10:00:27AM +0200, Gabor FUNK wrote:
Yes. Or at least know about the problem. There would be no easy workaround I guess, one soultion would be to use someting else than uw-imap...It _also_ makes sense to file a separate bug against php-imap requesting to improve code there. But I suspect that to take longer.
Avoiding libc-client altogether obviously avoids the problem - and you already mentioned that further down your list of possible options, I believe :-)
At http://mailman1.u.washington.edu/pipermail/imap-uw/2008-May/002059.html there is a reference to change 5+2 select() functions to poll(), however, I am not a programmer and also not quite aware of the consequences (eg. "some system does not have poll()" - (?) )It makes best sense for me for the bug to be fixed with UW-imap, applied as a patch here locally for the Debian package. I am not able to code a fix for UW-iamp. Help is much appreciated!
Thanks for the pointer. Now we just need someone able to turn that info into a patch. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm
