That's exactly what I'm talking about changing. With the patch, BE's LDAP library variant would also be controlled by that configure switch, so it would always match the FE. Almost all users would continue to choose libldap_r.so for the FE, so they'd start getting that in the BE too (if they didn't already due to distro-supplied symlinks). People using --disable-thread-safety would continue to get libldap.so for FE and BE, as they do today. -- Thomas Munro https://enterprisedb.com
