Compiling Openldap on Solaris 8

[Russell Seymour <russell.seymour@turtlesystems.co.uk>]

Good morning list,

I have a small irratating problem when compiling OpenLDAP 2.1.22 and I 
was wondering if anyone else ha da more permentant fix than the one I 
have and if so what it is.

When I compile the software everything goes great until it gets to the 
servers/slapd/back-bdb directory where it fails.  The problem is that 
the compiler is looking for files that end in '.o', but there are only 
files ending in '.lo'.

There is a workaround whiich is to crete a symbolic link for each file 
and call it ${file}.o.  However whilst this works it means it is not 
possible to leave the make process as it will break halfway through.

Does anyone have a more permentant answer to this?  I will quite happily 
change any file that needs changing and then generate a patch file, but 
I am not sure which file to change.

Thanks in advance,

Russell
