If most apps build fine against the new openldap, please do not provide

to discuss the possibility of a compat-* package.
The old compat- package providing 2.2.x libraries survived from FC5 to
F8, I just wanted to continue with the tradition :). I will remove it
when everything works with openldap-2.4.

You are being far too cautious about breaking things in rawhide,
especially this far before the Alpha1 development freeze.

Please build yourself the new openldap locally in mock, and test for
yourself whether every package rebuilds cleanly against the new version
within mock.
Compilation of big desktop things like kdebase and evolution is
something I want to avoid on my machine, even in mock. That's why I
asked appropriate maintainers to do so. Unfortunately koji does not
provide chain-build with --scratch option :(.
If the dependent package rebuild testing shows few problems, go ahead
with upgrading the version even before December. The sooner during this
rawhide cycle the better, to stabilize before Alpha1.
Of course, I will release it as soon as I am sure I do not seriously
break anything.
