Bug Description

I'd like to request a FFexception for dovecot 1.1.4. The new release mainly focuses on fixing indexing issues as well as mbox crashes.

Upstream changelog:

v1.1.4 2008-10-05 Timo Sirainen <email address hidden>

        - SORT: Yet another assert-crashfix when renumbering index sort IDs.
        - ACL plugin fixes: Negative rights were actually treated as positive
          rights. 'k' right didn't prevent creating parent/child/child mailbox.
          ACL groups weren't working.
        - Maildir++ quota: Fixes to rebuilding when quota limit wasn't
          specified in Dovecot (0 limit or limit read from maildirsize).
        - mbox: Several bugfixes causing errors and crashes.
        - Several fixes to expire plugin / expire-tool.
        - lock_method=dotlock could have deadlocked with itself.
        - Many error handling fixes and log message improvements.

v1.1.3 2008-09-02 Timo Sirainen <email address hidden>

        * mail_max_userip_connections limit no longer applies to master user
          logins.

        + login_log_format_elements: Added %k to show SSL protocol/cipher
          information. Not included by default.
        + imap/pop3-proxy: If auth_verbose=yes, log proxy login failures.
        + deliver: Added -s parameter to autosubscribe to autocreated mailboxes.
        - message parser fixes - hopefully fixes an infinite looping problem
        - SORT: One more assert-crashfix when renumbering index sort IDs.
        - mbox: Saving may have truncated the mail being saved
        - mbox: Several other bugfixes
        - mail_full_filesystem_access=yes was broken when listing mailboxes
          (it still is with maildir++ layout).
        - maildirlock utility was somewhat broken
        - zlib plugin: bzip2 support was somewhat broken
        - NFS: Make sure writing to files via output streams don't
          assert-crash when write() returns only partial success.

The merge from Debian experimental also enabled to following feature:

  * debian/control: added libbz2-dev to the Build-Depends to enable the bzip2
    support. (Closes: #495129)

The package builds on i386 and amd64. It also installs and upgrades correctly. All of the dovecot tests from the qa-regression-testing suite are also successful.
