This is saying that the file libldm.a does not exist in your
/net/anvil/project/ldm/ldm-5.2.1/src directory.  Please verify this.

>What do you suggest next?

If libldm.a doesn't exist in /net/anvil/project/ldm/ldm-5.2.1/src,
it means that it was never made which means that either you didn't
go back and do a 'make distclean' after making the source code
modifications that I suggested, or there is a config.cache file
in /net/anvil/project/ldm/ldm-5.2.1/src that was left over from
a failed build attempt.

I recommend:

cd /net/anvil/project/ldm/ldm-5.2.1/src
make distclean
rm -f config.log config.cache config.status
./configure
make
make install
