Bugzilla Bug 198408

emerge nss_ldap produces the following error on my ~ia64 system:

Something is weird with your system. The ebuild does NOT run autoconf/automake
at all.

please test 258 ASAP and report back.

nss_ldap-258 builds fine.

However after emerging it, the system seems to pause erratically on simple
things like login or ps.  Even emerge runs at a snails pace.  Downgrading to
254 solves the problem.  But I guess that's a subject for another bug...

Post your /etc/ldap.conf quickly?

and/or come and find me in FreeNode #gentoo-dev

Solution was to add the following to /etc/ldap.conf:
    ssl on

nss_ldap-258 now builds and runs juts fine.

Closing as mis-configuration, but I added an elog note to the 258 ebuild
anyway, in case anybody else runs into the same issue. If you use a 'ldaps://'
string in the 'uri' portion of /etc/ldap.conf, you must set 'ssl on' in the
file.
