Why a dependency on X stuff for an ldap server?
I'm upgrading from a potato machine, to woody.
Did the dselect thing, it didn't bother to upgrade openldapd for me, but I
found it in the obsolete pile.
So I run off to install slapd, after a bit of googling to see what
replaced openldapd.
# apt-get install slapd

Need to get 3768kB of archives. After unpacking 9722kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
This seems a bit excessive, considering it was something like two packages
for openldapd.
Any other way around this? I really don't want all that crap installed if
I don't have to.
