This is a testing call for OpenLDAP 2.5 Release Candidate (OpenLDAP 2.5.4) Depending on the results, this may be the only testing call.

Generally, get the code for RE25:

https://git.openldap.org/openldap/openldap/-/archive/OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5/openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5.tar.gz

Extract, configure, and build.

Execute the test suite (via make test) after it is built. Optionally, cd tests && make its to run through the regression suite.

Note that there are new features in 2.5, so please examine the options available with configure carefully. Some examples:

The new load balancer, which can either be built as a module for slapd (--enable-balancer=mod) or as a standalone server (--enable-balancer=yes)

The libargon2 password module (--enable-argon2).

Systemd notification support (--with-systemd=yes).

Thanks!

Regards, Quanah
