In Fedora, these are located in /etc/roundcubemail. These will +work in this location, and should not be moved. They will not be modified on +package updates, so you may want to check the .rpmnew files at that time to see +if you need to migrate your settings to the new file. Also, you should apply +changes to the database schema at this time. Each time upstream Roundcube +changes the database schema, they provide the appropriate commands in a .sql +file in /usr/share/doc/roundcubemail-0.9.0/SQL/(database) - there is one +directory each for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite. The filenames reflect the date +on which the changes in that file were made upstream, and a comment in each +file notes which versions it applies to. So when Roundcube is updated, check +the appropriate directory for your database provider, and apply the appropriate +changes to your database. There is a PHP script that attempts to aid you with +this process located at /usr/share/roundcubemail/bin/updatedb.sh which you can +call if you can work out the necessary parameters. -Jon Ciesla -10/20/2009 +The Roundcube installer is not included in the Fedora package, as its method of +operation is not compatible with distribution packaging. As a consequence of +this, the /usr/share/roundcubemail/bin/update.sh script which upstream +documentation advises you to run on updates is not present in the Fedora +package: it depends on the installer framework. All this script does is to +check for configuration file and database schema updates as described above, +and walk you through applying them; so long as you follow the steps outlined +here on updates, you should be fine. + +Jon Ciesla, Adam Williamson +2013-05-01 |
