Bugzilla Bug 1959

While trying to build gnumeric, a libgda emerge was required.  
libgda failed to build as I have ldap in my USE statement. I  
resolved this by unmerging openldap and the doing a USE="-ldap"  
emerge libgda.   
 
Here is the error log:

Seeing the same problem, but no new information.

same here 

I have no idea on where to go on this, can somone else look at it please?

Same for 0.2.96.  I am tending to to go for disabling ldap support until
this gets resolved.  I tried to get to the bottom, but there is no
ldap structure in /usr/include/ldap.h or any other ldap header according
to which the "typedef struct ldap LDAP;" (if i remember correctly) is
defined in /usr/include/ldap.h.  LDAP is then used by gda-ldap-connection.c,
and this is where the problem is coming in ...

Ill try a older/newer version of openldap when I get the time.

LDAP support disabled in new version (0.2.96)
