I think Thomas L. > got it personally, too, but was on vacation during this period. ] Here it is http://kolab.org/pipermail/kolab-devel/2005-August/004070.html Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> the question was originally asked by Bernhard H. and also went to Thomas L. who acted as contact point, which was very good. Today I would submit this issue to openpkg-users instead, but note that the question still is interesting today: Since OpenPKG 2.4, db 4.3 is used for OpenLDAP. We had stability problems in the past and until August the recommendations were clear to stay with db 4.2. How stable is OpenLDAP with db 4.3.29 (in general and with OpenPKG in particular)? How can the OpenPKG project guarantee stability with db 4.3? I think Thomas reported that it was a difficult project to find a combination of libraries that would actually make db and OpenLDAP work stably on many platforms. We found out that db threading did not work find one some machines and thus had to change it (way back). So the conclusion would be: Recreate a nice test-suite running on the various machines for OpenLDAP/db.
