Hi folks, we recently had to deploy Cyrus SASL on HP-UX (for OpenLDAP) and did notice that most of the configure stuff simply does not work and is a problem on several operating systems. Therefore, we have removed all outdated and *autogenerated* autoconf files from the repo which can be automatically generated anyway, updated .gitignore and added a working builconf/autogen.sh from curl which does a great job. Additionally, we have added cmulocal because the Git master is not usable without that. This should put an end to all the pain and suffering people have experienced during a manual build. There are several open issues in the Bugzilla as well as reports on the mailing list which have been fixed by this change: https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3851 https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3842 https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3614 https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3730 https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/security/cyrus-sasl2-gssapi/Makefile?view=markup#l86 http://asg.andrew.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.cyrus-sasl&searchterm=libtool&msg=9745 http://asg.andrew.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.cyrus-sasl&searchterm=install-sh&msg=10011 https://cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/readme.php KNOWN BUGS Change in https://cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/install.php Quick and Dirty: "If you're checking this directly out of CVS, you'll need to run "sh ./SMakefile" to build the configure script first." to "If you're cloning this directly from Git, you'll need to run "./buildconf" to build the configure script first." All changes have been made on top make Git tag 2.1.26 and can be replayed on master if you wish. Here is the branch: https://github.com/michael-o/cyrus-sasl/tree/cyrus-sasl-2.1.26-bugfixes Here is the diff against 2.1.26: https://github.com/michael-o/cyrus-sasl/compare/cyrus-sasl-2.1.26...michael-o:cyrus-sasl-2.1.26-bugfixes Changes have been tested on RHEL, FreeBSD 9.3 and HP-UX 11.31. This should also work for Solaris and the rest which had problems with. Please review, we've put several days of effort in this. Regards, Michael Osipov Siemens AG
