Hit this the other day - make sure you don't have old ltdl
(especially -dev) packages hanging around. if you've upgraded from
lenny to squeeze, then you probably have. Purge the old ones &
install new -dev.

I tend to use dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot

In latest git, you need to do

 rm debian/patches/rlm_sql.libs.diff
 sed -ie '/rlm_sql/d' debian/patches/series

before it will build (may not be the actual fix, but gets it to
build & I'm not using rlm_sql).
