Re: [BUG?] Dovecot 2.4.2 from Dovecot repo (RHEL 9) does not implement Sieve (properly/fully)

Update:

On further investigation I believe running `dovecot --build-options` is not relevant for showing that there are files necessary for Sieve functionality that are missing in installations from the RHEL 9 repo on the Dovecot site. I know this also as (because I wanted to get this solved and working) I compiled Pigeonhole from source from https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/download. I compiled Pigeonhole from source after downloading necessary `devel` header files. I made sure it installed into `/usr/` not `/usr/local`.

```sh
make clean
./configure --with-dovecot=/usr/lib64/dovecot --prefix=/usr
make
make install
```

After installing Pigeonhole — and working through the necessary config in `/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf` (config all in main file) and building `.sieve` scripts I got a **fully working** (and tested) Sieve setup — for example emails flagged as SPAM by Rspamd automatically moved to /Junk.

Anyway two points:

1) It seems clear and confirmed that the `dovecot-sieve` 2.4.2 package does not install necessary files. As a help I did a files list of both the `dovecot` and `dovecot-sieve` packages and selected out files in `/usr/lib64/dovecot` and merged sorted them. Then a did a find listing of `/usr/lib64/dovecot` from the server and fed them into an online diff checker, you can have a look here to see the differences...

there are a lot of files added by compiling Pigeonhole.

2) Moving forward I imagine there will be a re-release of the `dovecot-sieve` package. I am wondering about my installation — which is working fine now. Should — would it be best to try to reinstall the updated `dovecot-sieve` package? Or can I stay with the (again working) compiled Pigeonhole. Obviously when it comes time to update Dovecot + Sieve that will/may be a problem.
