If you want to require use of GDBM, you must say so using the --with-ldbm-api option.
./configure --with-ldbm-api=gdbm

If you have installed GDBM such that its headers and libraries will not be found automatically by the C translator and linker, you will need to specify additional include and lib search directories.

You will also need to disable the berkeley db with the option --disable-bdb Note also when configuring the slapd daemon you will use the db option "ldbm".
