Hello.

I have a problem with Cyrus-SASL 2.1.27 release and Sendmail. Sendmail
uses SASL's paths for find Sendmail.conf. It searchs configuration in
"sysconfdir" and "plugindir". I build sasl with --sysconfdir=/etc/sasl2
and --with-plugindir=/usr/lib/sasl2-3 (i586 version). Sendmail works
with 2.1.26 and 2.1.27rc8. It starts with one error

safesasl(/usr/lib/sasl2-3/Sendmail.conf) failed: No such file or directory

and finds Sendmail.conf in the directory /etc/sasl2. However, with 2.1.27
release an extra directory "sasl2" is added and the file is not found:

safesasl(/usr/lib/sasl2-3/Sendmail.conf) failed: No such file or directory
safesasl(/etc/sasl2/sasl2/Sendmail.conf) failed: No such file or directory

Is this a bug or Is using of --sysconfdir was changed?

Sergey
