Hi all,

CustomBuild listed dovecot updatable from 2.3.21.1 to 2.4.1-4 (and also dovecot.conf, lego, exim.conf and php).

Trying to update dovecot failed in the configuration phase with:
configure: error: Can't build with PAM support: libpam not found
doDovecot: failed to compile '/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/cache/dovecot-2.4.1-4.tar.gz' inside '/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/tmp/tmp.Vc8wYYtOQq.dovecot-2.4.1-4.tar.gz'
failed to build dovecot

I's apparently missing libpam. I'm running AlmaLinux 9 but when I do dnf list available|grep pam I don't get any libpam, so how do I get it? And shouldn't this have been handled by DA?

This is my repolist:
repo id repo name
appstream AlmaLinux 9 - AppStream
baseos AlmaLinux 9 - BaseOS
crb AlmaLinux 9 - CRB
epel Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 9 - x86_64
epel-cisco-openh264 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 9 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64
extras AlmaLinux 9 - Extras

Thanks,
Theo

I saw I had a pending kernel update, so I updated that and rebooted the VPS. Now dovecot build works (well it's still running ATM). Don't know if that was to be expected.

Proceeding with fingers crossed.

Edit:
Everything works fine now.

Sorry for wasting your time.
