And Torsten is eventually willing to upload it to the Debian archive. Ok, what I wanted done for this package is: - - Move to a patch system like dpatch or quilt - - Move to dh_install instead of copying around files. - - Understand how the maintainer scripts work in detail. - - GnuTLS patch for the 2.3.* version. (And make the patch generic so that newer versions of OpenLDAP doesn't require a large modification to the patch) There is probably more that needs to be done, but I can't remember myself more, so please add to the TODO list. :) I moved already to the dpatch system (I am pretty familiar with it, but if quilt is preferred please say so), I have made a start with the move to dh_install. I will commit my changes later today.
