There's only one way: either cyrus, or courier, has to either rename, or move.
Oh wait.. there's ANOTHER imapd. sigh.
CSWimap, which is the "UW" imapd.
Our search page says:
/opt/csw/bin/imapd
/opt/csw/libexec/cyrus/imapd
/opt/csw/sbin/imapd
Yuck!!!
I think we probably should move the non-cyrus ones to
/opt/csw/libexec/[prog]/imapd.
That's a nice standard.
Then there's the issue of what we do about man-pages.
That one's stickier.
Maybe rename each to be [prog]_imapd.8 ?
eg: cyrus_imapd.8 ?
It's an interesting point, that you didnt, strictly speaking, rename
the binary. you only "moved" it.
It would technically be a little cleaner, if you did truely "rename"
it, so we had
/opt/csw/sbin/[prog]_imapd
then we could have the manpages match the program name.
That would take cooperation between all the maintainers.
Who are:
You
[Retired], for courier imap
[Different-retired], for UW imap.
drat. that makes things more challenging.
We might best bring this up on the main mailing list.
