Comment 4 for bug 1006005

I'm not using SASL, but I'm also bitten by this bug. I've made a new package at my PPA that recompiles the source with OpenSSL support, which it looked like it was supposed to do anyway. You could try it out: https://launchpad.net/~team-mayhem/+archive/ppa

I wish I could help with figuring out why the original build didn't work out well. If any of my changes would be useful for the official Ubuntu/Debian package, you are welcome to take them.
