There's your problem: the XML2 library doesn't exist. This is why the 
configure(1)-script stopped: it couldn't find the required XML2 library.

Honestly, the best way to avoid problems like this is to have someone with root 
privileges install the required 3rd-party development packages in their proper 
places using the native package-management system. Otherwise, there is no 
guarantee that the LDM package will build and you're going to need root 
privileges anyway in order to correctly install the LDM package.
