[gentoo-user] LDAP everywhere?

[gentoo-user] LDAP everywhere?

[A. Khattri]

After a recent --sync I see now that the update wants to emerge openldap
because an "ldap" flag has been added to openssh and it seems to be the
default. Anyone else seen this? What is the thinking behind making it a
default flag? Makes no sense to me. I dont want or need openldap on my
boxes...

Do you have openldap installed?  The ldap flag is listed in /usr/portage/profiles/base/use.defaults so it should default to -ldap unless openldap is installed.  You can always add -ldap to make.conf.

Poking around it looks like ldap support was compiled into php and yes it
looks like openldap is installed (I will need to rebuild php and remove
openldap). Still, it doesn't explain why its switched on for openssh?

That's the way that it works with use.defaults.  When openldap is installed, it's just like you have +ldap in make.conf.  It's enabled for everything unless you add -ldap to make.conf or /etc/portage/package.use.
