For some reason, MD 2.72 didn't pick up that it needed the LDAP library (i.e. a "-lldap" added to the compiling line, when libmilter also has LDAP enabled).
Error: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -pthread -o mimedefang mimedefang.o drop_privs_threaded.o utils.o rm_r.o syslog-fac.o dynbuf.o milter_cap.o gen_id.o -L../sendmail-8.14.5/obj.Linux.2.6.39.1.x86_64/libmilter -lmilter -lpthread -lnsl ../sendmail-8.14.5/obj.Linux.2.6.39.1.x86_64/libmilter/libmilter.a(errstring.o): In function `sm_errstring': errstring.c:(.text+0x482): undefined reference to `ldap_err2string' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [mimedefang] Error 1 I saw no check for LDAP support during the configure stage either. I use openldap, installed with this shell script: #!/bin/sh configure --prefix=/usr --enable-ipv6 --enable-shared --enable-threads --disable-backends --enable-bdb --enable-ldap --enable-sql --with-slapd --without-slurpd --without-ldapd SLAPD_USE_SQL=mysql make sql exec make depend all install Sendmail (and thus the milter library) is built with these M4 options: APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF',`-DDNSMAP -DMATCHGECOS -DNETINET6 -DMILTER') APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF',`-DSTARTTLS -DMAP_REGEX -DSASL=2 -DLDAPMAP -DNEWDB') APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF',`-DIDENTPROTO=0 -DLDAP_REFERRALS -UNEEDSGETIPNODE') APPENDDEF(`confLIBS',`-lcrypto -lldap -lpthread -lssl -lsasl2 -ldb') Adding the missing "-lldap" to that one compile allows me to complete and install MD (and I have done so). Maybe autoconf needs to be alerted that the LDAP library needs to be linked in as the milter library may be dependent on it. _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
