What problems exactly? Can you give us any error messages? Perhaps there is an easier workaround.

If you have OpenSSL installed anywhere (your LD_LIBRARY_PATH seems to indicate that you have) then this is an indication of problems to come and not harmless at all.

Correct. ld.so.1 is the run time linker. It fails to resolve (find an implementation of) fdatasync() which is referenced (used) by IMAP.so . > > The second, fdatasync, isn't this a Berkeley macro? I can't remember where > it is, db.h? Here are a couple of environment variables: According to man, fdatasync() is an OS function that, roughly speaking, flushes I/O queues. It is contained in librt. I can verify that in my Cyrus IMAP build, the fdatasync symbol is provided by /usr/lib/librt.so.1 . Maybe there is just a "-lrt" missing in your link line. The (link time) linker would not complain in this case but ld.so would. Try forcing your linker to include librt: make LD_OPTIONS=-lrt This should not hurt anyting and you don't have to explain things to Perl. Try a "make test". If the error persists then please send ldd outputs for your IMAP.so: ldd -s blib/arch/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so And one without LD_LIBRARY_PATH: LD_LIBRARY_PATH= ldd -s blib/arch/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so Perhaps this will give us some pointers. In my experience, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is evil and should be avoided. But getting rid of the beasty can be a major PITA.
