Dear port maintainers,
OpenLDAP 2.0 is EOL and not any longer supported by the
OpenLDAP Project. The port is marked DEPRECATED and will
be removed from the ports tree May, 1st.
If you just have
USE_OPENLDAP=yes
you'll get the default OpenLDAP version from bsd.port.mk,
which could be changed by users in make.conf(5).
The following ports have a (maybe optional) dependance on
OpenLDAP 2.0, which may cause problems after removal of the port:
blaz@si.FreeBSD.org
- net-mgmt/nagios-plugins
chris@shagged.org
- mail/tpop3d
dinoex@FreeBSD.org
- dns/bind9-dlz
hadara@bsd.ee
- security/opensc-esteid
hetzelsw@westbend.net
- security/cyrus-sasl
jylefort@brutele.be
- mail/sylpheed-gtk2
mi@aldan.algebra.com
- devel/tcl-neo
mjoyner@hq.dyns.cx
- net/yptransitd
nakaji@jp.FreeBSD.org
- japanese/samba
nectar@FreeBSD.ORG
- security/heimdal
ports@FreeBSD.org
- net-mgmt/netsaint-plugins
- net/samba
tremere@cainites.net
- dns/powerdns
vivek@khera.org
- mail/postfix-current
Be aware that a direct dependance on OpenLDAP 2.1 is normally
not the right solution. Especially when using prebuild packages,
users depend on ports to have coherent defaults. OpenLDAP 2.2
is maturing, and will sooner or later be the standard OpenLDAP
port.
Furthermore, the following ports have an optional dependance
on port net/openldap12, which is marked FORBIDDEN and will be
removed April, 18th:
hetzelsw@westbend.net
- security/cyrus-sasl
knu@FreeBSD.org
- net/ruby-ldap
ports@FreeBSD.org
- news/nntpcache
- www/mod_php3
thomas@cuivre.fr.eu.org
- net/proxy-suite
vivek@khera.org
- mail/postfix-current
Please prepare your ports timely, so that the removal of the
OpenLDAP ports does not break them.
Thanks
Oliver
