Package: libsasl2-2
Version: 2.1.25.dfsg1-5
Severity: minor
Somehow in my upgrade path I had an old copy of libsasl2 in my system,
which provides /usr/lib/libsasl2.so.2. Being as that is checked before
/usr/lib/$ARCH/libsasl2.so.2, it was causing erratic behavior in
anything requiring libsasl2-2.
Simply removing libsasl2 fixes the problem.
Given it's an obsolete package, perhaps have 2-2 Conflict or Replace it?

Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-8+etch1
JFTR: etch had transitional package libsasl2, which provided correct
upgrade path, so I am marking this bug as fixed in etch version.
We do not support skipping releases when upgrading.
P.S.: I will remove the incorrect Replaces: in some next upload.
