RE: schema checking

["Roy Hooper" <rhooper@cyberus.ca>]

ldif2ldbm does not check schema.  This is probably NOT a bug, but perhaps a
developer will shed some light.

As far as I understand it, ldif2ldbm doesn't check schema because the
ldif2ldbm is generally used to contstruct a *NEW* database from what should
be valid data, or to import an already existing database from another LDAP
server.

You don't want to have ldif2ldbm check schema, because if it did, it's be
much slower.
