I’ve updated Dovecot packages in Xiaoka APT Repository to Dovecot 1.2.10 (with Dovecot Sieve 0.1.15 and Dovecot ManageSieve 0.1.11). There is also dovecot-antispam 1.2 rebuilt for this version available.

My attempted update was unsuccessful. Apt-get didn’t really explain why it was keeping the Dovecot packages back, but the following output from Aptitude seems to be more helpful:
…
The following packages are BROKEN:
dovecot-common
…
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
dovecot-common: Depends: libpq5 (>= 8.4~0cvs20090328) but 8.3.9-0ubuntu8.04 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
dovecot-imapd
Keep the following packages at their current version:
dovecot-antispam [1.2-0xk3 (now)]
dovecot-common [1:1.2.7-0xk1 (now)]
I certainly don’t want to remove dovecot-imapd!
PostgreSQL 8.4 is available in hardy-backports repository.
So the solution is to install libpq5 (8.4.2-1~hardy1) from backports. Thanks again Tomasz, I’ll try this as soon as I can.
