libsasl2 cocoapods dependency is broken

Hi!
I've read that cocoapods support is broken for now and I wanted to investigate. So I've tried to install the Pods for this sample project with the --verbose flag and everything seems to work fine until it reaches this dependency:

the podspec for libsasl2, a dependency of libetpan, is out of date and doesn't seem to be maintained anymore. Any suggestions or alternatives for libsasl2? Here's the link to the libsasl2 podspec btw. -> https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs/blob/b947340d648f51d66a6df1cbd1b5f7d8cf5a6de0/Specs/libsasl2/2.1.25/libsasl2.podspec.json

I think it could be fixed.
We had a similar fix for ctemplate.
The tricky part will probably be icu4c.
