Using some of the newer features of openldap (namely syncrepl in versions 2.2.x or 2.3.x) highlights a problem with berkley db <4.3. The best summary of this is at the URL I have provided. In summary I would like the patch I am attaching to be applied to 4.2.52 so that we have a version of bdb in portage that will provide the txn functionality.
Created attachment 73798 [details, diff] patch for bdb 4.2.52 for txn
pauldv: if you aren't available for this patch, i'll take care of it.
Actually I forgot to add that I am getting this error / problem already with 2.2.28 (ie the openldap in portage).
robin: go ahead.
in CVS now, new -r1 of 4.2.
