install-problems with preinstalled sasl

[peter pilsl]

I'd like to install cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 from the tarball und use a existing
cyrus-sasl-2.1.12 that was installed via rpm on a new suse-system. (sasl2 and
sasl2-devel ist installed)

The sasl-files are installed in 
/usr/lib
and
/usr/include/sasl
and the plugins in 
/usr/lib/sasl2


configure --with-sasldir=/usr fails cause it doesnt find sasl.h until I symlink
all files from /usr/include/sasl to /usr/include.

If I do so, configure fails with the following:

....
checking for sasl.h... yes
checking for sasl_getprop in -lsasl... no
configure: error: Cannot continue without libsasl.
Get it from ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu:/pub/cyrus-mail/.


Any idea to get out of this ?

thnx,
peter
