4.11 Where is qmail/ezmlm/djbdns?
Dan J. Bernstein distributes
all
software he has written
with a restrictive license, consequently,
it's in the non-free area. Since the license he uses does not allow modified
binaries to be distributed, you have to compile it yourself from the source and
the Debian patches to obtain a binary package you can install in your Debian
GNU/Linux system.
The source package names are qmail-src
, ezmlm-src
and
djbdns-installer
, respectively.
For qmail
you need to install qmail-src
first and
then run build-qmail
to build the Debian package. You also need
to do install the ucspi-tcp-src
package to get ucspi-tcp, which
qmail
depends on.
Dan J. Bernstein maintains a FAQ from distributors

compatibility
)
