Can't solve dependence on libtap

[ocgltd]

I downloaded the ZIP for this project and make is failing because of the absence of libtap/tap.h

I figured out that was a seperate project, so I downloaded it and symlinked it to libtap in the maxmind directory. (I assume that's an ok solution). However, now make fails like this

[make[2]: Leaving directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/bin'
Making all in t
make[2]: Entering directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/t'
cd libtap && make  all
make[3]: Entering directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/t/libtap'
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/t/libtap'
make[2]: *** [all-local] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/t'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0'
make: *** [all] Error 2]

The '/data/development/MyLibs/tl_geoip/libmaxminddb-1.6.0/t/libtap' directory is empty.

I have no idea how to solve this. Can someone offer a solution? (And perhaps add to docs to help the newbies). A google search suggested that libtap was just for testing, but I have no idea how to turn off this dependency.
