with USE="ldap", and emerging courier, maildrop does not have LDAP extensions. If I emerge just maildrop, it will have LDAP extensions. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I have edited the the courier ebuild, and modified it to be like the maildrop ebuild. After re-emerging, the maildrop application does now have LDAP extensions.
Do you mind sharing what you did?

Actually I found this typo because maildrop won't use authlib to retrieve user info, which is needed because of ldap. sendmail and all other parts of courier do. Usage of the -a switch (mandatory use of authlib) is ignored. The existence of the switch and it not working suggests the possibility is there, but not compiled in. I've tried compiling with both '--enable-maildropldap' and '--enable-maildrop-ldap' and even with '--enable-authlib' added. In the emerge log I see none of them used or even a check. According to the man-page the default usage of authlib can be compiled in or can be optional, so there is some switch. I know little about compiling and I don't know, where to find available switches.
