Thanks. Could you please explain (in the Wiki) any example use case where such
circular dependency is essential for a working setup, i.e., describe a situation
where neither cyrus-sasl built without ldap nor openldap built without sasl will
work?
Why is that necessary? If you feel it important Alexander, please
draft the text and submit it to this list. I don't understand why
we need to explain a circular dependency. Saying there is one and
how to get around it, is sufficient.
I don't feel it is important. It is just a low-priority suggestion to improve
the text in the Wiki. Feel free to ignore it.
I am not a SASL expert (I do run a LDAP server and connect to it using SASL
authentication mechanisms, but I don't run saslauthd and thus have no use for
LDAP support in Cyrus-SASL), so I cannot provide you with good text.
But I will reword my suggestion to make it more clear.
Formally there is an _optional_ circular dependency. The text in the Wiki will
benefit a bit if it explains when this circular dependency is indeed
unavoidable. Otherwise, people will build that "just because it is possible".
