Absolutely correct. Don't remove db3/db3-devel or you'll break many
things, including rpm.

Don't to this either. There is no confict with the system libs or
include files if you do:

and tell configure about it with --with-dbdir=/usr/local/Berkeley-3.2.
Well, except for a small problem easily surmounted...
There's a problem with the way the IMAP configure script searches for
the Berkeley DB libraries that will bite you on RedHat. The default from
install looks successively at libdb-3.2, libdb3.2, libdb-3.1, libdb3.1,
libdb-3, libdb3, libdb for db_create. Since the install of the Berkeley
package creates /usr/local/Berkeley-3.2/lib/libdb.a, the system copy of
libdb-3.1 will be found first. The simple fix for that is to copy or
link /usr/local/Berkeley-3.2/lib/libdb.a to
/usr/local/Berkeley-3.2/lib/libdb-3.2.a.

I don't particularly see in point in manually building SASL on RedHat
7.1. The system comes with 1.5.24 and the copy of sendmail furnished is
linked against that. Yes it might have a more authentication methods
that what the above will build, but that really doesn't hurt anything as
far as I know.
