Yes, I noticed that as soon as I responded to the bug you filed against
openldap2.3, you reassigned it away without further discussion. ;)  I guess
this means you think debian-edu-config didn't have a use case for needing to
modify the conffile in question, so this should just be fixed on the
debian-edu side?  And the debian-edu team agrees?

Great, thanks!

AIUI, the problem was internal to ruby, which was being built without
-fno-strict-aliasing -- causing problems with some of the casts in the ruby
source that showed up in the subversion test suite.

Did you help the maintainers with the fixes for this bug?  I know Peter
Samuelson did a lot of work to get this package fixed, including filing bug
#370553 on ruby1.8, and I don't see comments from you in that log (perhaps
none were needed).  If it's the case that this bug was fixed before you had
a chance to help, please work on this build failure instead:

Yes, thank you very much.
