Low Sensitivity/Aerospace Internal Use Only
I noticed that the new OpenLDAP-LTB RPMs for CentOS are dependent on berkeleydb-4.7, but they are failing and referencing berkeleydb-4.6. It's kind of confusing.

I'm not making this up, honest ;-)
So build your OpenLAP against a different version of BDB. ;) As I noted, 5.2.36 has worked fine for me for several years. ;)
That should be do-able although as far as I can remember in the ITS I
had
demonstrated that (at least on my setup) it was reproduceable and I thought I'd given enough information for it to be reproduced on a clean test rig with a sufficiently large pool of accounts in the one OU. I'm also unsure of the etiquette involved in resurrecting a dormant bug. I'm happy to give you whatever information you need though and a sanitised dump of my config in both HDB and MDB modes is probably a good place to start.
The primary OpenLDAP author just asked you to contribute more information,
so I wouldn't be too concerned about resurrecting the bug...
