Hello Rocky,
today I have decided to move my mail server from CentOS to Rocky. It all went well except on small piece i.e. the so called Milter helper for Amavisd-new. I am able to install the Amavisd-new without any problems whatsoever, however after trying to install the “Milter” helper that is just an interface between MTA and the AmaViS itself I faced the following problem:
[root@mail spool]# yum install amavisd-milter
Last metadata expiration check: 3:33:49 ago on Sun Dec 25 07:19:33 2022.
Error:
Problem: conflicting requests
- nothing provides libmilter.so.1.0()(64bit) needed by amavisd-milter-1.7.2-1.el9.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
Now I do need this in order to completely move from CentOS to Rocky i.e. to configure the DKIM on the mail server. Can you please help me with the installation of the milter interface on Rocky? What will be the correct way? Or is the milter interfaces deprecated. If so what will be replacing it ?
I am currently using the Rocky Linux release 9.1 (Blue Onyx).
now it seems that there is a way to do this in version 8 but not for version 9 i.e.
i am trying to keep that server installation minimal and thus does not want to install from
for that i will have to install munch of other tools that are not needed on production server! I would like to install from “yum install” and not from
./configure
make all
make install
make clean
When i check CentOS 7 i see that this is provided by epel , i.e.
[root@mail amavisd]# repoquery -i amavisd-milter
