it is no good idea to copy all the files! Everytime you want to do that have a look at the unix command ln for creating file links (especially "ln -s", see man ln).
In this OpenLDAP case you even wouldn't want to create symbolic links, but tell OpenLDAP configure where to find the BDB libraries. You can do this by setting apropriate environment variables. I do it by writing a shellscript with my ./configure commands, e.g.:
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/linclude" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openldap --enable-bdb
If needed, you can include more paths to libraries and includes needed by OpenLDAP, e.g. for SASL, then the first line would be in my configuration:
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib -L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib/sasl2"
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Peter

Hi Leon,
openldap installation problems, IMHO, is not a subject for this forum, but we'll try to help you :o).
I had such problem (i'm newbie in *nix). First - did you have installed BerkeleyDB ? If not, go to www.sleepycat.com . Secod - if you have installed BerkeleyDB, then you must ensure, what libs and other stuff of BerkeleyDB can be found in appropriate directories. I.e. I do not know how to include some dir in search path (I know, lamma ;o) ), but this is my workaround :
- I have installed BerkeleyDB in /usr/local/bdb
- after install I have copyed all files from :
/usr/local/bdb/lib to /usr/lib
/usr/local/bdb/bin to /usr/bin
/usr/local/bdb/include to /usr/include
- after that openldap ./configure goes well :o)
Sure you can install BerkeleyDB with --prefix=/usr and i think will be no need to do copies.
good luck
