dovecot update : cannot build with LDAP support: ldap library not found

[germanopires]

Hello,

I am trying to update dovecot, but without success. I see the following message:
========
configure: error: cannot build with LDAP support: ldap library not found
doDovecot: failed to compile '/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/cache/dovecot-2.4.1-4.tar.gz' inside '/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/tmp/tmp.SZjg23QF7A.dovecot-2.4.1-4.tar.gz'
failed to build dovecot

I see the libldap

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Hello,

Make sure you've got no custom /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/dovecot/configure.dovecot and openldap-devel installed

In my case it was the reason of the same error today.

Hello,
I checked and I have no custom
/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/dovecot/

 

[zEitEr]

and openldap-devel is installed?

 

[germanopires]

is installed

now the error has changed:

I managed to solve it. I don't know if it's the best solution. I created an empty file in /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/patches/ with the name dovecot-2.4-allow-wildcard-local-name.patch
