[squid-users] squid-7.0.2 can't configure with LDAP-helpers

[Andrey K]

Hello, Francesco,

I have also run a configure script with the same arguments on the Squid
6.13 sources.
It finished without errors.

The link to the 6.13 logs:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/16DY4uCM5cAbsNC8NcaoM8YB6GT8oUW3-/view?usp=sharing
The excerpt on the LDAP filter:
