Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2007-06-08 09:07:13 EDT

I've upgrade python-ldap in Rawhide to 2.3, but I'm a little hesitant about
bumping the version in a stable distro like Fedora 7.  Are there API changes
between 2.2.0 and 2.3 that may break applications?

Comment 3 Yoshinori KUNIGA 2007-06-09 06:54:34 EDT

Thanks for the swift response.  I compared the differences between output of
pydoc python-ldap-2.2.0 and python-ldap-2.3.  There is API addition but it
seems to there is no API changes.

Comment 4 Matthew Barnes 2007-06-09 11:58:33 EDT

Thanks for looking into it.  That seems pretty safe, and according to repoquery
only sabayon and luma use python-ldap.  I'll submit an update for Fedora 7 and
see if anyone objects.
