Hi, I'm quite sure that Buchan chose to not incur in conflicts with openldap package provided by RH. If the package was called the same as the RH one, you could be in trouble in trying to install/upgrade your system.
Me too I'm using Buchan's package and initially found this approach counter-intuitive, but it was only at the beginning... :-)
Regards Marco

I need to build a Red Hat rpm for the latest OpenLDAP release. I am looking for spec file, howto page, or anything else that might speed up this project. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Buchan. I see RPMs of the later OpenLDAP versions are labeled 'openldap2'. Is this just a naming convention change, a work-around done for Red Hat, due to configuration file changes (similar to freeradius' explanation for freeradius2 at
http://wiki.freeradius.org/Red_Hat_FAQ#Current_Pre-built_RPM.27s_for_RHEL_5_... )?
If not, what does the '2' designate?
Oops. I see now that is not 'openldap2' but 'openldap2.4'. I see you are now just adding the version in the name? Why the change? Why openldap2.4-2.4.20-1.el5.i386 instead of just openldap-2.4.20-1.el5.i386 (seems redundant)?
Thanks, Joe
