RFE: authorized sendmail should be in ports

[eric@…]

It would be nice to be able to enable authorized sendmail from ports. This is probably best by first completing a sendmail port, then adding a sasl variant, but it could be done any number of ways.

Here are the instructions for building the software. Hopefully patching dlcompat is not needed, if it is then it should either be verified that the patch is compatible with everything else that uses dlcompat or a custom version should be installed with a different name. Hopefully authorization can also be enabled for a released version of sendmail as well as sendmail from cvs.

$ cvs -d cvs.opendarwin.org:/cvs/od co dlcompat
$ cd dlcompat; sudo make install

$ curl -O ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/cyrus-mail/cyrus-sasl-1.5.27.tar.gz
$ tar xzf cyrus-sasl-1.5.27.tar.gz
$ cd cyrus-sasl-1.5.27/config/
$ cp /usr/libexec/config* ./
$ curl -O http://fink.sourceforge.net/files/ltconfig
$ curl -O http://fink.sourceforge.net/files/ltmain.sh
$ cd ..
$ ./configure --with-plugindir=/usr/local/lib/sasl --libdir=/usr/local/lib --mandir=/usr/share/man --disable-krb4 --disable-gssapi --enable-login

Also note that the ltconfig13 and ltmain13 hosted on opendarwin.org with other port distfiles can probably be used instead of the files listed in the instructions, which would be nice because most ports users probably already have those two files in their distfiles directories.

Reassigning bugs in my queue to where they belong.

Make the list of bugs easier to scan.

I think this can be closed as obsolete.
