Can we please add openldap 2.5 as an LTS release for people that just need an openldap instance that works with no or minimal changes? https://www.symas.com/post/openldap-project-release-maintenance-policy Seems like 2.6 will be only supported for 1 year while 2.5 will receive updates for 5 years.
Could you do a pr? I'm happy to merge it.
(Use the old 2.5 ebuilds from git as a basis then diff it with 2.6 and backport any safe changes)
Thanks for the tips Sam, didn't know we have 2.5 in the tree. However, it really lacks behind 2.6, so I tried using 2.6.4-r1 instead and it seems to compile and run. Running the tests to see if all goes fine, this is the current diff (needs polishing of course): --- openldap-2.6.4-r1.ebuild 2023-03-12 05:51:01.381155540 +0000 +++ openldap-2.5.14.ebuild 2023-03-12 06:20:19.527530399 +0000 @@ -139,7 +139,7 @@ "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.1-system-mdb.patch "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.1-cloak.patch "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.1-flags.patch - "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.1-fix-missing-mapping.patch +# "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.1-fix-missing-mapping.patch "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.6.4-clang16.patch ) @@ -669,7 +669,7 @@ # emake test => runs only lloadd & mdb, in serial; skips ldif,sql,wt,regression # emake partests => runs ALL of the tests in parallel # wt/WiredTiger is not supported in Gentoo - TESTS=( plloadd pmdb ) + TESTS=( lloadd mdb ) #TESTS+=( pldif ) # not done by default, so also exclude here #use odbc && TESTS+=( psql ) # not done by default, so also exclude here
Does 2.5 drop berkdb or is that just 2.6? If so, we need to make sure to keep berkdb bits in 2.5.
