Would be nice if the Cyrus SASL 1.5.27 ebuild could check for the ldap use flag, and if found include the LDAP patches from http://www.surf.org.uk/src/cyrussasl.html I will attach the ebuild I created to add the feature to my system. This is my first bug report, so forgive and inform of any errors..
Created attachment 1922 [details] Cyrus SASL Ebuild with support for LDAP Patch The ldap patch also adds MySQL, but I have not added the ./configure options and use flag tests for it.
The current version of cyrus-sasl in portage is 2.1.6 and has LDAP support. AFAIK, there are no packages that still specifically depend on the 1.x series of cyrus-sasl. NOTE* - There are no configure options to enable ldap support is sasl... you need to make sure to have ldap installed on the system before you emerge this version.
