That is as it should be: The Debian package installed the library and
created the symlink in /usr/lib/. The Debian package manager does not
know anything about the libsasl2.so.2.0.2* file/symlink in
/usr/local/lib/.

Well, you definitely have a different version of the library in
/usr/local/lib/ and it seems to take precedence over the one from
Debian. This alien library is broken or there is a version mismatch. If
you get rid of it then the system should use the correct one in
/usr/lib/.
However, you really have to figure out where the files in /usr/local/lib
came from. Did you maybe follow some tutorial on the web that told you
to compile and "make install" some programs from source? If you never
did such a thing, then I think you have to reinstall your system from
safe media because you may have been compromised. When additional files
start to appear mysteriously then all bets are off, especially if these
files are "alternative" versions of libraries related to authentication
and security,
