I'm giving the following packages up for adoption. They are all fairly small, and should be good for new maitnainers, yet challenging enough for some old roughies. Some of them use a form of the DBS source system (a smallish stripped down version, easier to use). Let me know if you have any questions about them. All I ask is that: a) Packages marked as such be taken by the same maintainer. Some of these are related. b) Do not do anything till I say you can. I'm very particular about my packages, and there is a chance that I will say no to you taking the package (nothing personal, I'm just that way). c) Do not make drastic changes to them. I use these packages, so if you break my system, I'll let you know. Right now I have too many other things to contend with to be able to mess with these smaller packages (shadow, openldap2, glibc, pam and all of sparc). Here goes: --------------------------- libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap These two must be taken together. The source is from the same upstream, and they pretty much are used in conjunction with each other (although they are seperate tarballs, and seperate functionality). If you do not know what these are used for, do not think about taking them. Messing them up will cause login failures to machines using them (like mine). They are small, and the upstream is very open to patches and bug reports. -------- tcl-ldap This is a tcl module compiled against libopenldap and provides a tcl interface to the LDAP protocol. --------------------------------------------- libapache-mod-auth-pam and libauthen-pam-perl These to not have to be taken together, but it would be nice since they both deal with PAM. Both are fairly small. The apache module allows .htaccess etc. to use PAM modules for authenticating. The PAM perl module compiles against libpam to give a perl interface to PAM. --- sdf This is a weird text formatting language that outputs PS, HTML, TXT etc. I only packaged it because openldap-guide requires it in order to generate it's documents. No one uses it, there are no bug reports that I know of against (maybe 1 or 2). ------------------- libconvert-ber-perl A binary encoding module used primarily by libnet-ldap-perl. Very simple package, good for beginners. That's all for now. -- -----------=======-=-======-=========-----------=====------------=-=------ / Ben Collins -- ...on that fantastic voyage... -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` bcollins@debian.org -- bcollins@openldap.org -- bcollins@linux.com ' `---=========------=======-------------=-=-----=-===-======-------=--=---'
