The last lines of output from the configure(1) script (file "configure.log") 
are these:

> checking for system logging daemon... found
> checking for /etc/rsyslog.conf... no
> checking for /etc/syslog.conf... no
> configure: error: system logging configuration-file not found

They indicate that the configure(1) script couldn't find the configuration-file 
for the system logging daemon. Finding it is necessary in order for the script 
to modify it for use by the LDM system. Where is it?
