Henning,
I am puzzled by your request. How does hardcoding the installation into
/usr/lib32/sasl2 affect the package on 32-bit architectures? Another
possibility to consider is this suggestion from the upstream
Makefile.am:
echo "* If you don't want to do this for some reason, you can"; \
echo "* set the location where the library will look for plugins"; \
echo "* by setting the environment variable SASL_PATH to the path"; \
echo "* the library should use.";
Perhaps we can set SASL_PATH in a wrapper for 32-bit apps on 64-bit
architectures. In any event, I am inclined to think that your patch
will not work in all cases. What are your thoughts?
Regards,
