[Mimedefang] when libmilter uses ldap

[Dilyan Palauzov]

    Hello,
    I tried to compile mimedefang from source. It binds agains 
libmilter.a, which used libldap . In configure.in of Mimedefang this is 
foreseen with the lines:

AC_DEFUN(MD_SM_LDAP,[
    AC_MSG_CHECKING([whether libsm requires -lldap])
    RESULT=`$NM $LIBSM | grep ldap_`
    if test -z "$RESULT" ; then
        AC_MSG_RESULT(no)
    else
        AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)
        LIBS="$LIBS -lldap -llber"
    fi
])

however the string "ldap|" is not contained in the ./configure supplied 
with mimedefang 2.55 . I tried to autoreconf, and got the error message:
root at aegeeserv:/src/mimedefang-2.55# autoreconf
configure.in:634: warning: underquoted definition of MD_MILTER_SFIO
  run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
  or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal

When I compile mimedefang 2.55, I get
    gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -pthread -o mimedefang 
mimedefang.o drop_privs_threaded.o utils.o rm_r.o syslog-fac.o 
../sendmail-8.13.5.bak/obj.Linux.2.6.12.4-vs2.0.i686/libmilter/libmilter.a

../sendmail-8.13.5.bak/obj.Linux.2.6.12.4-vs2.0.i686/libmilter/libmilter.a(errstring.o): 
In function `sm_errstring':
errstring.c:(.text+0x37): undefined reference to `ldap_err2string'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [mimedefang] Error 1

    In case I add manually -ldap -llber to Makefile, then it is asked 
for -lsm and so on.
    The trouble now is that this LDAP-string from cofnigure.in is not 
reflected in configure . Could somebody with understanding of the 
autotools check where the problem is?
