All: Tried to upgrade from Samba 2.0.7 to 2.2.6 on a Solaris 9 platform. Without setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, configure would fail around line 14160 I believe this is related the the fact that it couldn't find the library "libpopt.so.0". (See below excerpt from logs) Output from configure: checking whether to enable winbind auth challenge/response code... no checking whether to enable winbind ldap hack... no checking whether or not getgroups returns EGID too many times... no checking whether struct passwd has pw_comment... yes checking whether struct passwd has pw_age... yes checking for poptGetContext in -lpopt... yes checking whether to use included popt... no checking configure summary... configure: error: summary failure.
