Replying to [ticket:2901 markgav]:

Hi experts,

I'm trying to compile sssd from source. My purpose is to understand deeper the how sssd works.

I installed samba-4.32 from sources.

based on https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Sssd,

I set and check it:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/include:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"

[root@localhost sssd]# find / -name ndr_nbt.pc
/home/admin/samba/bin/default/librpc/ndr_nbt.pc
/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig/ndr_nbt.pc

printenv gives:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/include:/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig/:

If the env variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH is properly set
then you should be able ind package with command line
e.g.

sh$ pkg-config --libs ndr_nbt
-L/usr/local/samba/lib -lndr-nbt -lndr -lsamba-util -ltevent -ltalloc

If it works with command line utility then it should be detected by configure script.

Since this is not an issue in the code, I think we should close this ticket

There is no response for more that 3 weeks.
So I will close the ticket.
Feel free to re-open it or write mail to sssd-devel at lists.fedorahosted.org
