I don't think that gsasl is compatible with cyrus-sasl. From what I've seen at packages.debian.org, it doesn't even provide same library as cyrus-sasl does. Also, what makes you think that cyrus-sasl isn't developed anymore? 2.1.25 has been released less than year and half ago while it took two years for author to release 2.1.25. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
