Hi Jeff,
setting up Imap 2.0.9/sasl 1.5.24/BerkeleyDB3.1 on SuSE 7.0 led me into
the same problem. It was caused by sasl, which didn't compile/link with
the Berkeley 3.1. There is no sasl configure switch to tell sasl about
the lib and its include directory. Set up LDFLAGS and CPPFlags
accordingly and it works.
This is the script I used to invoke "configure" :
export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/include
export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/lib
./configure \
--with-pwcheck \
--without-krb \
--without-gssapi
When the build is complete, you may test it with the command "strings
-n4 utils/.libs/saslpasswd | grep "libdb"" from the top src directory
and you should see something like "libdb-3.xxxx". If it shows
"libdb.so.3-or-something", you got an elder, incompatible version, which
ships on linux systems with the shutils package and is located in /lib.
It is also required but not in the first instance.
Hope it helps.
All the best ... Michael
