Since dovecot, libnss-mysql, and libnss-mysql-bg have already been updated to use libmysqlclient12, the main reason for *not* updating cyrus-sasl2, the MTAs, and the ftp daemons (i.e.: segfaults from mixing and matching) no longer applies. I would accept an update of cyrus-sasl2 built against libmysqlclient12, but I would prefer to see at least exim4 and postfix updated first. Ideally, we would have agreement to update all of the following packages to libmysqlclient12 at the same time: courier cyrus-sasl2 exim4 linesrv pam-mysql postfix proftpd Even if they weren't all done together, there's still a possibility of segfaults because of libnss-mysql right now, so it's worth transitioning as many of them as possible. The only other thing to worry about is to make sure that these packages all have licenses covered by the current MySQL license exception. Incidentally, I think cyrus-sasl2-mit's build-dep on libmysqlclient10-dev is spurious and should be dropped. Cheers, -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
