    Hmm, which package are you talking about? I don't find a cyrus-sasl
    package in Dag's Repository.
    Then, did you install the mysql packages from mysql.org, or are you using
    the packages shipped with Whitebox linux? My rpms work with stock,
    unmodified distributions. If people install packages from other vendors,
    there is no way for me make sure it still builds.
