MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libldap25 [2]:

The pkgname does not follow Arch package guidelines calling for
attaching only the major version number as a suffix.

This builds libldap v2.5, not version twenty-five.

Please kindly resubmit this as 'libldap-2.5'.

Also please remove provides=libldap. AURweb and its RPC webcall
interface doesn't support versioned lookup, and doesn't serve that
metadata, so AUR helpers cannot choose dependencies based on AUR
provides version.

Also this is not a drop-in replacement for repo's libldap. Having this
with provides=libldap installed would allow users to remove 'libldap'
and break existing packages that rely on the latest SO version of the
library, available in repo.
