Yes, this has been reported before ( bug 176387 ). We ship a bare minimum set of perl module RPMs necessary to fulfil requirements. The core Net::LDAP module does not require Net::LDAPS, IO::Socket::SSL, Authen::SASL or Net::SSLeay, and the Net::LDAP build mentions them as missing "optional modules", but still installs Net::LDAPS . I think it is better not to modify the upstream Net::LDAP module, and let users discover the missing dependencies when they try to use Net::LDAPS, than not to ship Net::LDAPS at all - they can then install the missing modules from CPAN. I have submitted a request to Product Management to allow inclusion of the missing IO::Socket::SSL and Authen::SASL modules, which BTW are in Fedora Extras, in RHEL-4, to allow use of Net::LDAPS - if this enhancement request is granted, then we can ship these modules in RHEL-4-U4 . *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 176387 *** |
