I could build repmgr against Postgres source and on Ubuntu install of
EDB Postgres. The issue seems to be a combination of RH and EDB Postgres
installation. To me it looks like ld is finding
/lib64/libldap_r-2.4.so.2 library before the /opt/PostgreSQL/9.6/lib/
one. Removing the link in /lib64/ seems to force it to use the EDB
installed library. I do not know enough about ld to figure out how to
force it to only look at the EDB installed library without removing the
link.
