AW: [Kroupware] announcing OpenPKG 2.0 with kolab-20040217-2.0.0available on ZfOS

[Ronny Bolzendahl]

Hi,

I just installed the new version with the ZfOS obmtool (binary) on a SuSE
9.0 dist. Install went pretty well. Nothing to complain. 
However, when I tried to connect via the Toltec Connector from a Outlook 2k
Client and Syncronize the folders with the German special Chars like ö,ä and
ü I recived an error message from the Toltec Connector: "Unable to create a
IMAP4 mailbox for the folder 'Gelöschte Objekte'. The IMAP4 error message
'RNT8 NO Invalid mailbox name'.

Well, I know this might be a Toltec issue, since they might be able to
translate the special chars easyly... Wonder if this is a rfc matter or if
there is a switch for the IMAP config to allow these chars.

But hey, great job! Was waiting for the new release =) 

MfG

> 
> Dear Kolab users!
> 
> Yesterday OpenPKG 2.0 was released, see Press Release 
> http://www.openpkg.org/press/PR-005-openpkg-2.0.html
> 
> This release contains the results of all the integration work 
> that was done in the past five+ months. All the Kolab 
> extensions and changes that were made to forked packages were 
> merged back into OpenPKG. Also a OpenPKG package "kolab" was 
> added which is based on the genuine Erfrakon/Intevation 
> Kroupware project and has the Code Fusion engine replacement added.
> 
> In addition, the ZfOS web/ftp site was updated and comes with 
> Kolab packages and a installer which together come very close 
> to a turnkey system, see http://www.zfos.org
> 
> Please note that the release of OpenPKG 2.0 voids support for OpenPKG
> 1.2 and older. The pristine Kolab 1.0.8 is based on 
> unreleased and unsupported code (from a OpenPKG perspective) 
> that mostly comes from OpenPKG 1.1 and older times. Think 
> about the consequences!
> 
> It is important to understand that ZfOS today uses 
> pure-OpenPKG 2.0 packges. This was the ultimate goal of this 
> endeavor. Kolab users moving to this version automatically 
> inherit security updates created by OpenPKG. Updates can be 
> simply installed as ...-2.0.x packages when they become 
> available. Security adivsories are announced on 
> openpkg-announce at openpkg.org so it is highly recommended to 
> that list [1].
> 
> Unfortunately, there is no tested and documented upgrade path 
> from "Kolab 1.0.x" (based on OpenPKG ~1.1) to OpenPKG 2.0 
> (including Kolab 1.0.8). IT IS NOT A MATTER OF JUST 
> INSTALLING THE LATEST PACKAGES!
> Whoever wants to dive into that topic please read the 
> news.txt [2] and upgrade.txt [3] documents to understand 
> what's new and important for *OpenPKG* upgrades. There is no 
> documentation at all about what's additionally new and 
> important for *Kolab* upgrades. The community will surely be 
> glad to see such a document posted.
> 
> When reporting bugs or asking questions please think twice if 
> they are OpenPKG, Kolab, Code Fusion or ZfOS issues. The four 
> have convoluted relationships, so here is a guideline for 
> picking the best support:
> 
> - obmtool installer and ZfOS http/ftp issues: drop me a mail
> - package build/install issues: openpkg-users at openpkg.org
> - setup/usage/admin/engine issues: kroupware at mail.kde.org
> 
> A final note about version numbers. The OpenPKG "kolab" 
> package contains multiple vendor sources whose versioning is 
> not coordinated. This requires the kolab package to use a 
> unchained versioning scheme. Find more details in the OpenPKG 
> CVS commit log [4] and the ZfOS README [5].
