Well, if you took the right cyrus-sasl src rpm, then there was no need for another db4 package than the stock package from RedHat 9. Therefore I suggest that you rebuild the src rpm for cyrus-sasl and cyrus-imapd with only the db4 4.0.14 rpm installed. To do this, make the following: - stop cyrus-imapd and saslauthd if it is running. - remove the db4-4.1.25-4 packages with the --nodeps options. (rpm -e --nodeps db4-4.1.25-4 ...) - rpmbuild --rebuild cyrus-sasl-x.x.x.src.rpm - install the newly built packages (only those which are already installed) with rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs cyrus-sasl..... - rpmbuild --rebuild cyrus-imapd-x.x.x.src.rpm - install the newly built packages (only those which are already installed) with rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs cyrus-imapd..... perl-Cyrus.... Now you should have your system with only stock db4 packages from RedHat9 and cyrus-sasl and cyrus-imapd depending on only them.
