From Authen::SASL(3pm): | By default the order in which these plugins are selected is | Authen::SASL::Cyrus first and then Authen::SASL::Perl. | | If you want to change it or want to specifically use one implementation | only simply do | | use Authen::SASL qw(Perl); Actually, this should be applied to libnet-xmpp-perl where the authentication handling happens. > Makes it very doubtful that is is of release quality. In fact, I wonder > whether it'd be good to raise #427231 to RC as well. sendxmpp is a nice tool to easily send messages from scripts or commandline and i'm not aware of a good alternative in debian. If no one objects i would prepare a nmu and reassign 427162 to libnet-xmpp-perl. Regards, Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
