Re: Building Netscape C LDAP SDK 3.0 on unix

[Frank Smith <franks@tradeonemktg-aus.com>]

I'll second the motion that it's broken.  I read the build
instuctions on the web page and it claims a 'Last Modified'
date of May 31 (http://www.mozilla.org/directory/buildsdk.html)
so perhaps something has changed since then.  I'm using the
source in ldapsdk_19981123.tar.gz by the way.
   I set/unset the environment variables specified, and got
nowhere with the build.  Obviously there's more to the magic
than just having GNU make.  Perhaps it is looking for something
that only exists if you have the mozilla browser source installed?

{franks}:178=> make --ver
GNU Make version 3.77, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
  ...
{franks}:179=> make -f directory/ldapsdk.mk build
cd config; make
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/franks/packages/mozilla/config'
make[1]: *** No targets.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/franks/packages/mozilla/config'
make: *** [build] Error 2
{franks}:180=> 

Doesn't exactly give me high hopes for how well it will work if
I do manage to get it built.

Actually, it says 'GNU make 3.74 or a more recent version'.  I'm
using 3.77.
