i think you're referring to my PR. after some more testing, i realised this can't work, because even if you split the port into krb5-libs and krb5-server, krb5-libs still has to be compiled with LDAP support because the support libraries include LDAP code. using an LDAP-enabled kdc with a non-LDAP-enabled libs causes the kdc to crash at startup. so my original intention of making krb5-libs not depend on OpenLDAP isn't possible with that solution. i didn't get around to updating the PR yet, sorry. i'm hoping with MIT krb5 in base, we might be able to find a better solution to this, but i haven't had a chance to actually try it. it may be we have to go with a glib-style "bootstrap port" solution.
