Bug 12513 – libgda-0.2.96: LDAP support prevents compilation

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Axel Irriger 2002-12-21 04:06:15 UTC]

libgda-0.2.96-r2 has ldap support disables in the ebuild script. Regardless, the
configure script delivered with the source tarball does not understand a
--without-ldap parameter. Therefor, if OpenLDAP is installed, it is included in
the Makefile and results in an error during compilation

[Comment 1 Axel Irriger 2002-12-21 04:13:15 UTC]

The configure script doesn't make a distinction between --with-ldap and
--without-ldap.
Furthermore there's no if-clause deciding wether to check for ldap or not.
So I think a patch against the configure script should be made..

I'm having this problem too.  is anybody working on this or do I have to unmerge
ldap?

[Comment 3 Simon ARNAUD 2002-12-29 09:41:20 UTC]

As Adam Gelwarg said :
"I think the ebuild should have --disable-ldap instead of --without-ldap."
from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6551

It worked for me.

I hope Foser will have another look into it.

Well, actually it looks like '--disable-ldap' gets completely ignored.
'--without-ldap' triggers the ldap check anyway. So the suggestions works, but
giving no ldap configure parameter should work fine as well.

I'll fix it in time, but i might have to wait until after the freeze.

Thanks for bringing that old report in ;)
