>Number: 105585 >Category: ports >Synopsis: OpenLDAP should not be linked with BDB 4.3 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-ports-bugs >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Wed Nov 15 23:10:02 GMT 2006 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Dave Horsfall >Release: N/A >Organization: Corinthian Engineering P/L >Environment: N/A >Description: It is accepted amongst the OpenLDAP community that OpenLDAP should not use BDB 4.3, as the former triggers bugs in the latter. I have made the porters aware of this issue several times, yet OpenLDAP 2.3 continues to list BDB 4.3 as a requirement, thus doing a dis-service to users not familiar with this fact. Please change this dependancy to BDB 4.2.
