the changes in dse.ldif in that issue (3584) made libpwdchan-plugin required 
for the server (new entries in in cn=Password Storage 
Schemes,cn=plugins,cn=config).

No, actually i have never installed rust on any of our production or build 
servers. dse.ldif now integrates by default rust-written plugins but 
--enable-rust is not a default option in ./configure, that was in fact the 
problem.


Thank you, William!
