LDBM not found during configure

[Bosco Tsang]

I am trying to install OpenLDAP which will require LDBM as backend. I have BerkeleyDB.4.1 installed under /usr/local. However, when I run the configure on OpenLDAP, it will give me the following messages. Anyone knows why? and How can I fix it?

Hi. Did you ever figure this out?

I'm working on a different issue (linking db-4.1.24 to PERL 5.8.0), but came across this post in my search for assistance.

I have a question regarding where it is installed on your system. Did you let it install in the default location of /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1? Or did you override that with --prefix=/usr/local, which means the library would be at /usr/local/lib/libdb.4.1.sl?

Can you tell if OpenLDAP's autoconf is looking for libraries in /usr/local/lib and if it is possible to instruct it to also look in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1?
