Look at: http://dag.wieers.com/packages/proftpd/proftpd.spec You'll see: %{?_with_mysql:--with-libraries="%{_libdir}/mysql"} \ %{?_with_postgresql:--with-libraries="%{_libdir}"} \ --with-modules=mod_readme:mod_auth_pam%{?_with_ldap::mod_ldap}%{?_with_mysql::mod_sql:mod_sql_mysql}%{?_with_postgresql::mod_sql:mod_sql_postgres}%{!?_without_tls::mod_tls} So it is well designed to handle all the situations and what has happened should not have happened, unless he did --nodeps. Or did I miss something ? Kind regards, -- dag wieers, dag@xxxxxxxxxx, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]
