RE: Removing older versions of libgsasl.

[Trent Renshaw]

Hi Simon,

Sorry, I feel like a dumbass now. Have done a 'make uninstall' for 0.2.9 and 
0.2.21, updatedb and confirmed all 'gsasl' files have been removed.

I have since done a 'make install' of both libgsasl-0.2.21 and gsasl-0.2.21, 
manually added /usr/local/lib (where libgsasl.so lives) to /etc/ld.so.conf and 
updated with ldconfig.

Jabberd now configures with gsasl :)

Cheers,
Trent.

Hi!  There is a 'make uninstall' in GNU SASL, and it should remove the 
installed libraries.

Without knowing for sure, it sounds as if you have two versions of GNU SASL 
installed at the same time, and jabberd2 picks up one of them.
Check where they are installed, and whether the paths are included in 
/etc/ld.so.conf (or similar).  Also check if the symlinks on the libgsasl.so 
files actually point at the right files.  Could you check this?
