I'm seeing the same on a NetBSD 2.0_RC3 system with Cyrus SASL 2.1.19
installed from current pkgsrc and SASL_DBTYPE unset (or set to ndbm)
during build time:

	Oct  7 15:46:51 bart saslpasswd2: setpass succeeded for testuser
	Oct  7 15:46:51 bart saslpasswd2: Couldn't update db


When setting SASL_DBTYPE=berkeley (thus linking against bdb 4.2.25),
saslpasswd2 logs the following when creating and deleting entries:

	Oct  7 15:56:32 bart saslpasswd2: setpass succeeded for nix
	Oct  7 15:56:32 bart saslpasswd2: error deleting entry from sasldb: DB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data pair found


However, in both cases the entres are successfully created / deleted,
and the sasldb is working.


HTH, Jukka
