We link to libsasl2.so, so get a dep on cyrus-sasl-libs automatically. The dep on cyrus-sasl-gssapi gets us the mechanism that matches our default config. The 'cyrus-sasl' package merely contains some man pages and the saslauthd daemon, which is not required by libvirt. This dep appears to have been redundant since we first added in commit 1b1d647439059b7e10fb94e1ade227fb695d7110 Author: Daniel P.
