Would it be possible to install the mdb_* tools by default with a
standard OpenLDAP build/install, so they don't have to be built and
packaged separately either?
If the tools built from OpenLDAP sources depend on a specific library version
(I assume they do) then one would have to use another path prefix when
installing them.
Hmm, in the long run I'd like to see a single liblmdb being installed with the
accompanying tools system-wide just like the BDB libs/tools. I understand that
this would limit the freedom of developing/shipping an OpenLDAP-specific
"fork" in the OpenLDAP sources.
Ciao, Michael.
