I've long seen and admired your efforts to help others with
cross-platform rpms; thanks on behalf of all of us. I've always been a
go-it-aloner since my SCO OpenServer 5.0 days, years ago: "I'll do it in
spite of you, you bastards", and that's carried on right to today.

I've got a machine that I can put Fedora Core 3 on. For OL 2.2.17 it
will have to have BDB 4.2.52/2 as a standard header and lib choice,
Cyrus SASL 2.1.18/19, 
openssl 0.9.7d, ldapdb auxprop, Postfix 2.1.5/TLS/SASL, Courier IMAP
3.0.8/maildrop 1.7 with Openldap support. I'll be having to compile my
own dspam 3 and install and configuring my own amavisd-new 2.1 with ldap
support and all the cpan-based Perl support for it (not a little). And
(Python 2band C) pykota print quota software with LDAP support. Do you
do all those rpms as well? Does anyone?

And of course, SuSE's Enterprise Linux (God bless Novell and all Provos)
supplies all of the above, out of the box. Why the hell use Openldap
when there's eDirectory: A far superior product, is it not?
