samba 3.6.0 compile error --enable-external-libtdb=yes (works for samba-3.5.11)

[Werner Maes]

Thanks for the hint !
configure:56270: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "tdb >= 1.2.6"
Requested 'tdb >= 1.2.6' but version of tdb is 1.2.1
You may find new versions of tdb at http://tdb.samba.org/
configure:56273: $? = 1
Requested 'tdb >= 1.2.6' but version of tdb is 1.2.1
You may find new versions of tdb at http://tdb.samba.org/
configure:56301: result: no

I compiled tdb from tdb.samba.org and that seems to do the trick

Your config.log will probably have an indication of why the tdb on your system could not be used.
