Hi
Having built and installed the 1.3.11-101 rpm, I got a working
courier except for LDAP aliases. Receiving mail fails with
authldaplib: refuse to authenticate alias@domain: uid=0, gid=0 (zero uid or gid not permitted)
I've had this once before, twenty years ago. I don't remember
how I solved it then, but I do remember that it was a lot of
pain.
Anyway, troubleshooting now from scratch, I realise there is no
courierldapaliasd, although courier-ldap is installed:
# rpm -ql courier-ldap
/usr/lib/courier/share/courierwebadmin/admin-15ldap.html
/usr/lib/courier/share/courierwebadmin/admin-15ldap.pl
/usr/lib/courier/share/courierwebadmin/admin-15ldapa.html
/usr/lib/courier/share/courierwebadmin/admin-15ldapa.pl
/usr/share/man/man8/courierldapaliasd.8.gz
The binary in /usr/lib/courier/sbin/ is not there. And there
is no ldapaliasrc.dist either. I found the latter in the rpm
buildroot, but it's not packaged.
Adding "BuildRequires: openldap-devel" to the courier-ldap
package section of courier.spec produced and packaged
courierldapaliasd. Reinstalling the new courier-ldap rpm, as
well as courier and courier-maildrop for good measure, fixed
the uid=0 problem. It did not fix the missing ldapaliasrc.dist.
***
A completely separate problem with the current src.rpm is
that it fails to build in mock because too tight permissions
prevent strip from doing its job. This patch fixes that:

Loosening up permissions at this stage doesn't matter, because
they are set again as they should be in %files.

Yet another oddity that I noticed while rebuilding the rpm,
is that it installed courier in the build environment:
# mock -r alma+epel-9-x86_64 --define "debug_package %{nil}" \
--define "mailuser courier" --define "mailgroup courier" \
--define 'notice_option --with-notice=unicode' \

I happened to have an earlier courier in my local repo before
I started with 1.3.11-101, so this self-dependency didn't create
a problem for me. But it will for anyone trying to build a courier
rpm for the first time. I didn't check where the circularity came
from.
Note: if some very sharp eye catches mgetty-sendfax on this el9
and wonders wtf, it is not a specfile miss. In this aspect the
specfile works exactly as intended, but I commented out an %if,
%else and %endif in the fax section.

Cheers,
