There is ldap-support (experimental) for cyrus-imapd (2.2.x) available. "configure --help" reports: --with-ldap=DIR use LDAP (in DIR) (experimental) /usr/local I would be very happy if there is any possibility to translate the USE-flag "ldap", into "--with-ldap=/usr" within the ebuild, to test the ldap-support. If you don't like to use the common (global) USE-flag because of the "experimental" status of cyrus-imapd's ldap-support, is there a chance to introduce a cyrus-imapd local use-flag for example "ldap-exp"? Many thanks in advance! Daniel Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 117869 [details, diff] cyrus-imapd-2.2.12-r4.ebuild-experimental_ldap.patch This patch offers USE-flags to enable cyrus-imapd's experimental ldap support: introduced local USE-flags: "ldap-exp" "ldap-pts-exp" and "auth-krb5" perhaps the global USE-flag "ldap" can replace "ldap-exp/pts-exp" in the future?!
This is still tagged as "experimental" in upstream cyrus-2.3. Therefore I personally don't see a need to add this USE flag, closing this one as WONTFIX. If you disagree please provide additional information on the current state of ldap-support in cyrus-2.3 and reopen this bug.
