According to Bugzilla, there were requests as far back as 6.2/7.0 to include LDAP support by default in the Postfix RPMS and the reason then to not do so was because that would add an additional dependency that most users would have to install packages for. These days I don't think I could install even a stripped down Red Hat Linux system without LDAP. However, even in rawhide the Postfix LDAP support is not built by default. Is there a reason it can't/shouldn't be enabled by default for 8.0?
*** Bug 71352 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Still true w/ 8.0
I'm closing this, since the rawhide builds now have LDAP enabled....
