problem testing LDAP

[Andrew Miles <andrew@in2.com>]

Hello,

I'm in the process of setting up OpenLDAP on a PowerPC machine 
running yellowdog linux, and have run into a problem.

First installed version 2.7.7 of Sleepycat Software's Berkeley DB. 
Then I went through ./configure, make depend and make.  All seems to 
be going ok, but when I cd into the tests directory and run make, I 
get the following error:


[root@mac1 tests]# make
Initiating LDAP tests...
> > > > >  Executing all LDAP tests...
> > > > >  Test Directory: .
> > > > >  Backend: ldbm
> > > > >  Starting test001-ldif2ldbm ...
running defines.sh . ldbm
Datadir is ./data
Cleaning up in ./test-db...
Running ldif2ldbm to build slapd database...
./data/test.ldif: Too many levels of symbolic links
ldif2ldbm failed!
> > > > >  ./scripts/test001-ldif2ldbm failed (exit 1)
make: *** [all-local] Error 1


Looking at the data directory within the tests directory shows that 
it's nothing more than a link back to itself (?)


Any ideas?
