Building on SuSE 7.1 - problem with threads

[Marian Steinbach <marian@ds.fh-koeln.de>]

Hello!

I am trying to build OpenLDAP 2.0.11 (openldap-stable-20010524) on SuSE 7.1
(glibc 2.2).

When running ./configure I get the "could not link with POSIX Threads" error
message. I read that others have seen this on RedHat. The question would be,
have SuSE people had this, too, and how have you worked around this?

Has anybody tried to install another pthread compatible library, e.g. GNU
Portable Threads?, and can report about his experience?

Thanks!

Marian
