oops, misfired. sorry.

[Comment 3 Tuan Van (RETIRED) 2005-03-01 21:27:34 UTC]

please post your `emerge cyrus-sasl -vp`

[Comment 4 Jonathan Halcrow 2005-03-02 18:04:43 UTC]

outlander rollingrock # emerge cyrus-sasl -vp

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Not a bug.
from the ebuild:
...
        # Generate an empty sasldb2 with correct permissions.
        LD_OLD="${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${D}/usr/lib" SASL_PATH="${D}/usr/lib/sasl2"
        echo "p" | "${D}/usr/sbin/saslpasswd2" -f "${D}/etc/sasl2/sasldb2" -p login
        "${D}/usr/sbin/saslpasswd2" -f "${D}/etc/sasl2/sasldb2" -d login
        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${LD_OLD}"
        chown root:mail "${D}/etc/sasl2/sasldb2"
        chmod 0640 "${D}/etc/sasl2/sasldb2"
...

during emerge, the ebuild create an empty sasldb2 with correct permissions. saslpasswd2 by default will load all the plugins (include sasl auxprop with sql engine), but your system has not setup yet so saslpasswd2 just give a all the warnings in the message log. It's harmless.
