I use Debian 11 Exim 4.94.2 (exim4-daemon-heavy), which has Cyrus SASL support

installed some SASL components for reasons unrelated to Exim, I see the
following error messages in auth.log for every received message:
... exim4: ldapdb_canonuser_plug_init() failed in sasl_canonuser_add_plugin():
invalid parameter supplied
... exim4: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_canonuser_init for plugin: ldapdb
This causes no problems, but I still wonder why it happens. Exim, in my
opinion, should not try to initialize anything that is not used.
None of the strings "ldapdb_canonuser_plug_init", "_sasl_plugin_load" or
"sasl_plugin_load" appear in the current exim git head. While I've
not checked 4.94 release explicitly, I don't recognize them either.
I don't know why they've turned up in the exim binary.
I'd suggest taking the question to Debian bugs.
