"Can't locate loadable" Perl module when running cyradm

[Conrad Kleinespel]

Hello again,

I have not yet found a way to run "cyradm" directly on my machine. So I
downloaded the Docker images (from
https://git.cyrus.foundation/diffusion/ID/) and now I can run "cyradm"
from within Docker. This seems to work as expected: I can connect to the
Docker host from within a container.

However, when I run something like "cyradm --user conradk 172.17.42.1"
(when the IP is the IMAP server's IP), "cyradm" requires a password.
>From what I understand after some Google searches, I need to use a tool
called "saslpasswd2" to set the password of my admin user. This tools is
apparently not in the Docker image.

So I went to download Cyrus SASL (from
https://git.cyrus.foundation/diffusion/S/). I followed the instructions
from "doc/install.html" but when running "./configure", I get an error I
don't understand:

    ./configure: line 5574: syntax error near unexpected token
    `SASL_DB_LIB=""'
    ./configure: line 5574: `SASL_DB_LIB=""'

I tried running "SASL_DB_LIB=`pwd`/sasldb ./configure" but that doesn't
change anything.

If you know a way to make this work, I would be grateful for your help
:-)

Best regards,
