Description
The symbol make_scrambled_password was removed in 5.5.36 but it's still used in pam_mysql on debian.
Error from saslauthd:
"PAM unable to dlopen(pam_mysql.so): /lib/security/pam_mysql.so: symbol make_scrambled_password, version libmysqlclient_18 not defined in file libmysqlclient.so.18 with link time reference"

Thank you! doing this now (downgrading).
I was instructed to roll stuff back, according to this: pastie.org/8784056
which worked.
URGENT! I have mariadb 10.0.9 version. Need to downgrade it so that make_srambled_password is included in libmysqlclient.so.18.
How can I achieve that? My mail/web server is down for this issue.
Plase help!!!

Ok figured it out. Just use this repo to downgrade to version 10.0.8
deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/mariadb-10.0.8/repo/debian wheezy main
Ufff! What a mess.
This bug is really annoying one 
everytime i do a new installation (quite often as we are installing MariaDB on every VPS) i need to immediately do a downgrade to 5.5.35. Maybe you can release a 5.5.35.1 with only this one bug fixed, hm?
Fedora considered this symbol deprecated and doesn't export it, but apparently it's still needed on Debian.
The latest version of pam_mysql.so from Wheezy repo does indeed use make_scrambled_password.
