Help installing perldap-1.4

lypkm has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, I have been trying to install perldap-1.4 for the Mozilla modules that it has and I am getting the following error on the API compile -

gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/ -c   -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/inclu
+de -I/opt/gnu/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O  
+ -DVERSION=\"1.4\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.4\" -fPIC "-I/usr/local/lib/perl5
+/5.8.5/sun4-solaris/CORE"  -DLDAPV3  API.c
API.c: In function `perldap_init':
API.c:133: error: storage size of 'memalloc_fns' isn't known
API.c:141: error: `LDAP_OPT_MEMALLOC_FN_PTRS' undeclared (first use in
+ this function)
API.c:141: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
API.c:141: error: for each function it appears in.)

I have gcc 3.4.2 on a Solaris 9 box. Please advise. My perl version is 5.8.5

You do not have (or gcc is not finding) the LDAP SDK. Please re-read the INSTALL docs. The intelligent reader will judge for himself. Without examining the facts fully and fairly, there is no way of knowing whether vox populi is really vox dei, or merely vox asinorum. -- Cyrus H. Gordon	[reply]
