Help Needed: Integration of Fedora Directory Server

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fedora Directory Server is really close to suitable for packaging and inclusion in the Fedora distribution. Only three issues remain:

1)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196401
Review Request: mozldap
Some minor issues with the .so versioning need resolving.

2)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196393
Review Request: svrcore-devel
Help is needed to properly convert svrcore into a dynamic .so library. It has been suggested that autotoolizing of svrcore would be very nice, but not a requirement. Upstream will then use this dynamic .so in future versions, including the FDS to be submitted to Fedora Package Review after these two issues are solved.

http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/
The Fedora Directory Server project requests your assistance in fixing these two packages in order for FDS to become suitable for Fedora packaging standards. This work isn't very difficult, but it must be done properly and acceptable for upstream inclusion.

3)
The last step is to confirm that the FDS .src.rpm works reliably with db4-4.3.x included in FC6. The FDS team indicated that they are a little nervous about version 4.3, because the OpenLDAP folks do not support db4.3 due to several instability problems they have experienced.

Thus FDS with db4.3 will need to go through extensive reliability testing. If db4.3 proves to be too problematic, then the decision could be made to use compat-db42 (known good) or possibly experiment with db4.4 or db4.5.

If you are interested in lending a hand, please talk to the folks at the FDS project.
