You can't do this. You will lose the ldap utils. Not just the userland binaries, but also the simple ability to say, log in to systems which authenticate over LDAP.

Respectfully, you seem to have misinterpreted my message.

I am not asking for support with my system; I can sort that out myself. I am asking why these libraries have been removed, and why I see a general trend of 32-bit library removal. The last I knew, the 32-bit kernel was dumped and the userland binaries were being slowly migrated, but 32-bit libraries were being preserved. What changed? Is it a simple matter of needing more hands on deck (i.e. is this situation reversible with more help), or is there some other factor? Is there previous discussion about this on the mailing list that I can read?

I am trying to determine what the goals and roadmap of this project have become, and whether they any longer align with my own.

There are several types of software you can run on OpenIndiana:

1. Software built by OpenIndiana maintainers and available via either
    openindiana.org or hipster-encumbered ips publishers.

    For such software OI maintainers aims to keep them fully working.  If
    there is any issue with such software it could be considered as a
    bug.  Any reports of issues here are welcome.  Also help to solve
    such issues is welcome.

2. User compiled (either open source, or its own) software.

    For such software OI maintainers cannot provide any support because
    they simply do know nothing about such software.  If such software
    works with OpenIndiana at one point in time, then user is just lucky,
    because _any_ change in OpenIndiana could break such software and OI
    maintainers have no way to notice.  Such change could include:

        - library update (library name could change)
        - pacakge obsoletion
        - any file relocation or removal

    For such software there are only two viable ways to make sure the
    software works:

        - contribute it to oi-userland
        - maintain it yourself

3. 3rd party binary only software.

    For this software everything above in #2 applies, but there could be
    some exceptions for some special cases where OI maintainers decided
    to support such software with extra effort.


Your 'conky' case falls under #2.

There was recent discussion about support for SunRay software which
would fall under #3.

root@saturn:/root# certutil -L -d /var/ldap
certutil: function failed: PR_LOAD_LIBRARY_ERROR: Failure to load dynamic
library
         ld.so.1: certutil: fatal: relocation error: file
/usr/lib/mps/libsoftokn3.so: symbol sqlite3_temp_directory: referenced
symbol not found

Thanks for the report.  This falls under #1 above and _somebody_ needs
to look at it and try to solve the problem.  I think in this case just
rebuild the system/mozilla-nss package 64-bit only should help.

Is 64-bit certutil at /usr/sfw/bin/amd64/certutil working properly for
you?
