[getdns-api] How to specify ldns in ./configure?

[John Dickinson]

Hi Paul,

Can you post your config.log? There should be a section like this:

configure:10900: Checking for dependency ldns
configure:10902: checking for ldns_dname_new_frm_str in -lldns
configure:10927: cc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I/home/jad/ldns-1.6.17/include   -L/usr/local/lib -L/home/jad/ldns-1.6.17/lib conftest.c -lldns   >&5
configure:10927: $? = 0
configure:10936: result: yes

but yours should show the contents of the failed conftest.c file as well as some error messages.

regards
John
