Of the claimed missing componenets, (libfreeradius-server, libfreeradius-radius) we only have lib64freeradius1 which provides libfreeradius-server.so.

 $ urpmq --requires freeradius  | grep radius
config(freeradius)[== 3.0.26-1.mga9]
libfreeradius-dhcp.so()(64bit)
libfreeradius-eap.so()(64bit)
libfreeradius-radius.so()(64bit)         looks OK
libfreeradius-server.so()(64bit)         looks OK

 $ urpmq --whatrequires lib64freeradius1
freeradius                               looks OK
lib64freeradius-devel
lib64freeradius1

Can you please confirm what radius packages you have installed:
 $ rpm -qa | grep radius

Radiusd searches for the libraries in /usr/lib64/. But all libraries from lib64freeradius1 are installed in /usr/lib64/freeradius/

As temporary workaround, you can copy all *.so libraries from /usr/lib64/freeradius/ to /usr/lib64/
After copying the libraries, the service starts.

Seems like a packaging error in freeradius-3.0.26-1.mga9

Thanks for your quick research. I suspected something similar.

Workaround is to create the following file
# cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/freeradius.conf 
/usr/lib64/freeradius/

and then run ldconfig.

After doing that ...

although there are loads of
OK that worked. I suspected something like that but had no idea how to tell ldconfig how to add /lib64/freeradius to the ld search path. (there used to be an env path LD_LIBRARY_PATH but it seems to have disappeared.
And there is not man page for ldconfig it was hard to figure out how to tell it to look into /lib64/freeradius

I am surpised that although there are loads of .so files in lib64/freeradius  only the first 4 (libfreeradius*.so got put into the ldconfig cache. .
   
Anyway, that /etc/ld.so.conf.d/freeradius.conf file needs to bu included in the radius package. Has noone ever used radius on Mageia in half a year?

I am trying to compile ucserv, a VPN software which I got from Fedora. It wanted radcli. After I got the radius  working, I compiled radcli. It however suddenly wanted to look in /usr/lib/freeradius, rather then /usr/lib64/freeradius, which is where the radius files were located. Now, I  put in a link from /usr/lib/freeradius to /usr/lib64/freeradius, and the compilation worked, but I have no idea why it was suddenly looking in /usr/lib, since it is /usr/lib64/freeradius that is in ldconfig. 

Oh well, now to see if I can get ocserv compiled.

Fixed both mga9 and Cauldron adding a 'ld.so.conf.d' conf file to fix binaries not being correctly linked after RPATH removal.

Tested on x86-64, aarch64 (rpi4b) and i586 (vb).

Just tested that radiusd.service starts ok. Not testing that
radiusd actually works as I don't know how to use it and don't have
the energy to dig into learning how.
