RE: configure: error: Berkeley DB version mismatch

["Tay, Gary" <Gary_Tay@platts.com>]

Let me clarify:

1) There is no issue of GNU make in Solaris "9" as Solaris "9" comes
with GNU make and gcc and I use them also, I am not sure if there is
issue with GNU make with Solaris "8", but some tips from Google advised
me to use /usr/ccs/bin/make on Solaris "8" so that the object files
generated have less issue when they are linked with /usr/ccs/bin/ld,
again I may NOT be correct.

2) I know u gurus have no issue building openldap with SASL support, for
new learners like me, this SASL is another animal and as I don't need it
I filter it so that I am likely to face less issue.

3) Thanks for telling me more on the ./configure options, those options
are from "tips" of others and when they work, I leave them as they are.
I actually use the superior BDB for my OpenLDAP builds, the
"--enable-lbdm" could be removed.

There is nothing wrong with using GNU's make.  I use it on Solaris all
the 
time.

OpenLDAP builds just fine with SASL.

I suggest not enabling LDBM at all for OpenLDAP 2.2, especially when
used 
with Solaris.  BDB is superior.


I've been building OpenLDAP on Solaris for 2 years now.  It builds just 
fine in a normal environment.
