Package: emacs21-el

Severity: normal

If you look at the ldap-search-internal function in the file ldap.el
there is a regex that parses the lines output from the invocation of
"ldap-ldapsearch-prog". It parses the string into three substrings and
then sets the variable "name" to the first substring and the variable
"value" to the third substring. In the latest ldap.el it then tries to
invoke "string-match" on "value". Unfortunately that match always
fails because it looks like it's assuming that part of the regex match
for the second substring, which isn't stored, is contained in
"value". There's either a problem with the regex used to parse the
string into substrings, or you need to get rid of the "string-match",
which is what was done in the previous version of ldap.el in
emacs21-el 21.4a+1-1. Here's the diff for the latter that fixed the
problem for me:
