I've built openldap 2.4.11 packages for el4 and el5. These include compat packages for openldap 2.2 and 2.3, respectively. Since openldap 2.4 has a lot of enhancements over 2.3, I thought it may be valuable to have in ie. the centosplus repo. Also, having the same version of openldap available for centos4 and centos5 may be nice for people. What do you think?
The 2.4 release announcement outlines many of the features and can be found here: http://www.openldap.org/software/release/announce.html
Please review the packages/spec files found here: http://staff.osuosl.org/~jeff/openldap/
Checksums for the rpms are here signed with my gpg key: http://staff.osuosl.org/~jeff/openldap/checksums.txt
Any questions/feedback welcome :) I've tested the EL5 clients/server/ compat out and it seems OK, but I'd appreciate if someone could test on CentOS-4...
Thanks, Jeff

What do you do with packages linked against openldap (samba comes to mind)? That's why I didn't build the overlays package for CentOS 4 (as that can only be done in 2.3 upwards), but just in 5.
How about adding an overlays package also? (No need for the smbk5pwd patch, maybe) I do need at least two of the provided overlays. See the openldap spec in the SRPM on http://dev.centos.org/.

Looks okay.
Cheers,

The idea is that the compat-openldap packages are reproducing the version of openldap that is in base. That way everything built against openldap will still find the correct libraries.

I'll check it out. Thanks for your feedback.
