Description Jules Agee 2002-07-19 22:32:44 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020529

Description of problem:
There's a README file and an m4 file in the openldap source RPM that would be
really nice to have in the openldap-servers binary RPM. That binary RPM includes
the mail500 and maildap utilities, but only includes documentation for mail500.
The mail500 binary performs the exact same function as the maildap utility,
except location-specific config directives need to be compiled into mail500, so
that utility is basically useless in a binary distribution. The maildap utility
is configured through a config file, but the only documentation of how to create
that config file is in the missing README.

Recommendations:
remove mail500 binary and mail500 man page from binary openldap-servers RPM.
mail500 is completely useless.

put openldap/clients/maildap/maildap.m4 in
    /usr/share/sendmail-cf/mailer

put openldap/clients/maildap/README in
    /usr/share/docs/openldap-servers-XX/maildap


How reproducible:
Always

Comment 1 Jules Agee 2002-07-19 22:36:05 UTC
Actually, now that I think about it, it would be nice if the maildap LDAP client
was also moved from the openldap-servers RPM to the openldap-clients RPM.
