For the records: these two packages in community are broken:
courier-authlib
freeradius

I was able to rebuild both packages successfully without changes in file list.

courier-auth works for me.

I put them into community-testing.

The shared lib built with shadow was a hack in the PKGBUILD that I removed for the 4.1.5 release as the code would not get past the linker without further changes. Packages which linked against this phantom .so did so in error (likely due to crappy upstream autoconf/automake decisions). shadow doesn't even provide an include -- shadow.h is part of glibc, but doesn't even prototype the functions which were exported in shadow.so. Furthermore, it's generally a Bad Idea™ to be using shadow based authentication in the age of PAM.

Breakage, according to Allan, is limited to these 2 packages.

So what happened here? I didn't get any breakage or else my mail server wouldn't work. Anyway, Sergej will you move the packages to community since apparently that package in there is currently broken?
