In general terms, you will need to either supply arguments to a configuration
command, or patch a configure script so that it will discover shlibs installed
under $LOCALBASE/lib (which is usually /usr/local/lib). Where there's a lot
of Makefile infrastructure already set up (as there is when you USE_CMAKE --
see /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.cmake.mk) then this should all be handled for you
already.

There's a lot of prior-art for using CMake in the ports tree -- as there is
for using LDAP.  In fact, take a look at security/ike and deskutils/kdepim4
as examples of ports that use both.

Or copy what someone else already did:

   % grep -Er 'CHECK_(INCLUDE_FILE|LIBRARY_EXISTS)' /usr/ports/

If there are USE_FOO flags available, then you should use them.  In this
case, you seem to require some combination of USE_CMAKE, USE_OPENLDAP
and USE_AUTOTOOLS -- as far as I can tell, just haing both USE_CMAKE and
USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtool:22 should do the right thing, as USE_CMAKE will
completely rewrite the do-configure: make target.

	Cheers,
