Hi,

I would really appreciate any help with this problem as I am not all that experienced with Linux configure scripts for building source.

I downloaded a vmime library source package. One of the dependencies it has is on another open source lib - gsasl. I had no trouble building the gsasl lib.

But I cannot figure out how to let the vmime configure script know that I have built the gsasl package. Here is the end of the output of the vmime configure script:
==================================
checking for char... yes
checking size of char... 1
checking for short... yes
checking size of short... 2
checking for int... yes
checking size of int... 4
checking for long... yes
checking size of long... 4
checking gsasl.h usability... no
checking gsasl.h presence... no
checking for gsasl.h... no
configure: error: can't find an usable version of GNU SASL library
==================================

I would be very grateful for any help.

Thanks

Look up for the corresponding version of libgsasl-devel. Big chance this is the problem.
