2.2.28 doesn't honor --disable-ldap?

My package builds pass `--disable-ldap` to the configure line for GnuPG;
this does not appear to be honored any more?

Resuming a failed build docker container and trying again, it's failing
at:

make[1]: Entering directory '/root/src/gnupg-2.2.28/dirmngr'

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

The config.log confirms:

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnupg --disable-nls --disable-ldap --enable-noexecstack --enable-key-cache=32768 --enable-wks-tools --with-pinentry-pgm=/opt/gnupg/bin/pinentry-curses --with-libgpg-error-prefix=/opt/gnupg --with-libassuan-prefix=/opt/gnupg --with-libgcrypt-prefix=/opt/gnupg --with-ksba-prefix=/opt/gnupg --with-npth-prefix=/opt/gnupg

I can't spend time writing a patch on this right now, so I'm posting in
the hope that the maintainers might fix this for me, so I can add an
upstream patch to my build. :)

Thanks,

Sorry, for not having tested this. LDAP is currently pretty important
to us, so did not even thought about it. Thanks for reporting, Gniibe
already pushed some fixes.

FWIW: Not for 2.2 but for 3.3 the plan is to move all LDAP stuff to
dirmngr_ldap so that we can get rid of the possible linking of two
different libgcrypt versions or linking to yet another crypto library
(if OpenLDAP is build against Nettle). The other reason is that we can
properly implement a timeout for LDAP. The OpenPGP LDAP keyserver code
does not yet handle a timeout correcly because OpenLDAP has no way to to
that (e.g. during a connet attempt). dirmngr_ldap would then run as a
co-process to keep state.


Shalom-Salam,

Werner
