I was Cherno Bill's batman
May. 12th, 2005 12:13 amOh, this is just silly.
I've hacked on a recent version of Postfix to make it do IPv6 on HP-UX 11i. It's a bit of a lash-up of #ifdefs, but then the whole of that subsection's like that, and indeed makes some unwarranted assumptions about HP-UX which complicate things. I've tested it and it appears to deliver mail. I've built the thing on 11iv2 (11.23 on PA-RISC, Lord alone knows what it'll do on IPF) which supports IPv6 natively. I've checked that the patch applies cleanly to the latest development release of Postfix.
So why am I sweating over the (perceived) state of the code? I should just punt it off to TPTB and let them worry about it, right?
Right.
[Sigh]
