Another alternative would be to have a separate package for the nssov overlay which would provide/conflict nslcd. That package (slapd-nssov?) could then also have the maintainer scripts configure and enable the overlay in slapd.
I don't think dropping the dependency is a good idea because users upgrading from older versions where the daemon was part of libnss-ldapd would end up with a non-functioning system without a clear way to fix it after an upgrade. -- nss-pam-ldapd should not depend on nslcd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
