Compiling kdebase 3.4.2 with LDAP support

[Lars Stolze]

Hello,

I'm having serious problems compiling KDE with LDAP support. I'm
running Slackware 10.2 with the default 2.4.31 kernel and a default
KDE 3.4.2 installation. I always use checkinstall 1.6.0 to install
self-compiled stuff.

At first I installed OpenLDAP using the openldap-2.3.20-i486-1kjz.tgz
package from linuxpackages.net and tried to compile kdelibs and kdepim
with LDAP support as suggested in a lot of posts across the web.
Because there were no configure flags concerning LDAP in kdelibs and
kdepim but in kdebase, I went on and tried to compile kdebase instead.
Unfortunately compiling kdebase results in an error message. I thought
that might be related to the OpenLDAP package from linuxpackages.net
and therefore I compiled OpenLDAP 2.3.20 myself using:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openldap --localstatedir=/var/lib
--sysconfdir=/etc --with-cyrus-sasl --with-tls --with-readline
--with-threads --enable-debug --enable-syslog --enable-dynamic
--enable-local --enable-proctitle --disable-ipv6 --disable-static
--enable-shared --disable-slapd --disable-slurpd
make depend
make
checkinstall

That works fine so far. After that I tried to compile kdebase using:

./configure --prefix=/opt/kde --with-shadow --with-xinerama
--with-ldap=/usr/local/openldap --program-prefix=""
--program-suffix=""

./configure works, but running make finally resuls in:

Because I supposed there may be a problem with the latest OpenLDAP
release I also tried the whole process with a self-compiled OpenLDAP
2.3.6 which was released last summer before the release of KDE 3.4.2.
Unfortunately the result was the same. After that I compiled OpenLDAP
version 2.2.27. Compiling kdebase worked fine then, but the
installation failed during make install, respectively checkinstall.
There was a problem finding and copying a file called kio_ldap.so.
There were only files called kio_ldap.lo and kio_ldap.la present.
Sorry, but I haven't copied the error message and don't remember the
exact wording.

It would be great if someone could help me with that. I need LDAP
support for the Groupware at work, but have no idea what to try next..
Thanks a lot.

Lars
