Issue ID: 9870
Summary: Remove optional overlay syntax
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: slapd
Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org
Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net
Target Milestone: ---
While the module/overlay support was really young, an unreleased version of
OpenLDAP supported 'optional overlays' that could fail start up without that
being treated as a fatal error.
This was later disabled, never documented and nowadays it can't work anyway,
but the configuration option is still there in config_overlay() honouring
overlay names starting with the '-' character as an alias. A patch to remove
that leftover is coming.
