RE: OpenLdap test fails

["Alan Sparks" <asparks@doublesparks.net>]

Maybe the best way to tell if you're having a dynamic linking problem on
Solaris is to use the "ldd" command, i.e.:

ldd slapd

If it reports any libraries not found, you have a problem.  The dynlinker
for Solaris 7 is pretty limited where it looks, and for Solaris 8 requires
using the crle command if you want to add default link paths.  Note that
you need to make sure you do this as the user that'll actually run the
executable, or at least be sure you don't have an LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable that will skew the test.

When I have these sorts of problems I add a -R<path> option to the
LDFLAGS, like:

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib" ./configure ....

This embeds a link path in the executable so Solaris' linker will find it.
 Course, if you move the libraries, it may break the executable.
