problems building python-ldap-2.0.0pre13

[Marc P. <pet...@ma...>]

i have set up the setup.cfg like this:

     library_dirs = /usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/lib
     include_dirs = /usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/include
     libs = ldap lber ssl

then i build like this:

   /usr/local/python/Python-2.1.3/bin/python setup.py build

and i get the following error:

gcc -shared build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/LDAPObject.o 
build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/common.o 
build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/constants.o 
build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/errors.o

build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/ldapmodule.o 
build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/linkedlist.o

-R/usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/lib -lldap -llber -lssl -o 
build/lib.linux-i686-2.1/_ldap.so
gcc: unrecognized option `-R/usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/lib'

first, there is a correct "-L/usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/lib" 
followed immediately by the 
"-R/usr/local/openldap/openldap-2.1.23/lib". can anybody tell me what's 
wrong here?

i tried to download python-ldap-2.0.0pre15.tar.gz but i cannot fetch 
it, the link on sourceforge does not work for me.

another question: could i also explicitly tell python-ldap which ssl 
installation it sould use?

thanks for any hints.
regards,
marc

I see that warning as well but the module builds just fine. Do you see 
the .so file or not?

there is a library_dirs line in setup.cfg, try using that and see where 
it gets you.

if you mean in build/lib.linux-i686-2.1? there is a _ldap.so. is this 
o.k.? can i install now without regrets?

You could save yourself a lot of time by just giving it a try and 
seeing if it works.
