Re: cyradm failure

[Jeff Blaine]

I have solved this by setting SASL_* and OPENSSL_* as referenced
in Makefile.PL to include every -l -L -R option necessary for
linking libsasl2.so into IMAP.so
Your perl/imap/README and perl/imap/Makefile.PL need some work.

README should mention SASL_INC, SASL_LIB, OPENSSL_INC, and OPENSSL_LIB
environment variables referenced in Makefile.PL and describe precisely
what they can and/or should contain.
Makefile.PL is inconsistent and confusing here:

  my $SASL_INC = $ENV{SASL_INC};
  my $SASL_LIB = $ENV{SASL_LIB} || "-lsasl2";
  my $OPENSSL_INC = $ENV{OPENSSL_INC};
  my $OPENSSL_LIB = $ENV{OPENSSL_LIB};
combined with line 63:

  'LIBS'  => ["$SASL_LIB $OPENSSL_LIB -lssl -lcrypto"],

Make up your mind how you want to do it :)  I suggest either:

A) Changing:

       my $SASL_LIB = $ENV{SASL_LIB} || "-lsasl2";

     to:

       my $SASL_LIB = $ENV{SASL_LIB};

     and adding the appropriate '-lsasl2' on the LIBS line 63 ... OR...

B) Changing:

       my $OPENSSL_LIB = $ENV{OPENSSL_LIB};

     to:

       my $OPENSSL_LIB = $ENV{OPENSSL_LIB} || "-lssl";

With our existing AND a brand new fresh/clean Perl 5.6.1
build for the sake of trying to get this to work, I cannot get
it to work and cannot make any sense of what the problem is:
- Solaris 7
- Cyrus IMAP 2.1.13 (working fine with 100 users - has been
  for months.  Just can't do any administration yet!)
- Cyrus IMAP 2.1.14 does the same thing.
