There's a sticky thread at the top of this forum for Etch, if you could add procedure for installing on a minimal install I'm sure that would be appreciated by lots of people. How to install Zimbra Debian 3.1 binaries on Debian Etch 4.0 [Workaround]
Openssl 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 is a major release difference despite the numbering (they use letters for minor versions)! The lib APIs are different hence the lib increment, I promise you symlinking like you have done WILL provide unforseen fun and games at some point in the future  In general libs should never be symlinked unless you are intimitately familiar with the APIs. |
Ok, I stand corrected!
All relevant issues then seem to be about me having a minimal install of Debian Etch, and that my crypto libraries in question were compatible "for the time being". I've of course installed the Etch 0.9.7 libraries now - everything seems ok.
I'll try to provide a minimal package-list necessary to for users to run Zimbra on Debian Etch, as you requested.
By the way, : I' m still running Zimbra 4.5.5. Do you have any hints on upgradin to 4.5.6 - from 4.5.5 using Debian Etch (4.0) ?
Thanks for the tips ...
