>Description:
pkgsrc-current uses release 4.0.16, released in 2006.

This is pretty old and a number of bug fixes, speed improvements and security 
improvements have happened / should have happened with the package.

Filing this report after, a key feature for support for "Gmail" as a repository 
type found missing in the available version in pkgsrc.

Will be good to upgrade to latest release of offlineimap - 6.4.2

To the extent I understand, this being a python package, should not have 
complex dependency issues.


>How-To-Repeat:
Configure a gmail account using repository type as Gmail (supported in later 
releases) and run offlineimap
>Fix:
Upgrade to the latest release.
