I am trying to cross-compile libnss-pam-ldapd for an arm architecture. The configure command always gives the following error:
checking for library containing ldap_search_ext... no
checking for ldap_search_ext... no
configure: error: could not locate a valid LDAP library
It is clear it's not finding the ldap library, despite having provide it in the configure command with the LDFLAGS enviromental variable.
I'm sure the solution to the problem is simple, but so far I haven't been able to solve it.
This is my configure command:
export PATH=/home/andrea/cross-compiler/compiler/gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/:$PATH
export CC=/home/andrea/cross-compiler/compiler/gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc
export CPP=/home/andrea/cross-compiler/compiler/gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-cpp
export CFLAGS="-fPIC -D_GNU_SOURCE -marm -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a9"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/home/andrea/Sorgenti/openldap-2.4.57/include/"
export LDFLAGS="-L/home/andrea/Sorgenti/openldap-2.4.57/target_MOD/lib"
./configure \
