Description bsod 2013-02-11 22:22:39 UTC

When openldap on hardened(?) gentoo is build with the gnutls use flag compile will work but ldap will not start.
If you use ldap in nsswitch.conf emerge will not work anymore until you remove ldap from nsswitch.conf.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.compile openldap-2.4.30 (the latest stable release) with the gnutls use flag
2.try to do anything with ldap that requires tls (start ldap server, connect to ldap server) and it will crash




As a workaround you have to disable the gnutls use flag. Some other packages often depend on it than you basically have to remove ldap support from them.

Example for the crash

This is the crash you are seeing when ldap is enabled in nsswitch.conf.
Basically this shuts down every emerge!

Not sure whether this is in sys-auth/nss_ldap (the crash refers to /lib64/libnss_ldap.so.2) or net-nds/openldap

Rebuild your system with a consistent version of gnutls.
Don't link one thing to old gnutls, and something else to new gnutls.
