AIX 6.1 install trouble.

[Chris Dukes]

Manually rerun that last 'gcc' with a -Wl,-bnoquiet added to see the source
of the objects depending on SSL symbols.
I suspect that your ldap library is linked against OpenSSL.  I recommend
installing either IBM's LPP of OpenSSL, or the RPM from www.perzl.org

Here is the spec file I used to build python-ldap 2.3.10 back in March on
AIX 5.3.
http://zeniv.linux.org.uk/~pakrat/python-ldap-2.3.10-1.fc13aix53.spec
This was added to the contents of the source RPM for python-ldap taken from
Fedora 13.
This was done with Visual Age 'C' and 'C++' 10.1.0.0
I provided build requirements, including python, from
http://www.perzl.org/aix/
Unfortunately, I did not build the OpenLDAP RPM I used and cannot provide
you the binary RPM.
You can try using the openldap spec file from
ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/SPECS/
in combination with the source and patches from current Fedora as a starting
point for building OpenLDAP.
