I don't know the current status of Ubuntu as an IPA server but in the
past it has not worked well. There are a lot of moving parts in IPA and
there is basically one maintainer in Debian trying to herd all the cats.

Given that I also use Debian (and Ubuntu at times), how can I help?


Oh cool, thanks. I've cc'd Timo. He is the Debian/Ubuntu maintainer.

Ah, sadly my favourite topic :)

The blockers right now are:

* bind-dyndb-ldap doesn't support bind9 9.19.x [1]

* bind-dyndb-ldap also needs to be rebuilt for every bind9 upload, and it might 
also break when bind9 is updated, which makes it unreleaseable on Debian. The 
solution to this would be to release it with a license which is compatible with 
upstream, which should allow merging it upstream (and fix the first issue) [2]

* tomcat9 is basically gone from Debian/Ubuntu, but jss (which merged 
tomcatjss) or dogtag itself don't support 10.x yet [3]. I was told 10.1 should 
be in rawhide by now-ish, but it's still not there, so porting is blocked AIUI.


In the past I've run the azure test suite on an older Debian/Ubuntu release with 
select backports (bypassing the above issues), and the pass rate of all the tests 
was > 90%, so it's not perfect. To get to full 100% there are still things to 
skip or rework to pass on a .deb distro. But it's rather pointless to work on a 
frankendistro, I don't have time for that. So it's client only for now, and 389 
and others are available waiting for a brighter (unrealistic?) future to arrive...

HTH

       What have I got involved into?! Well, I am here for the entertainment 
(even if I learn something(!)  in the process); let me build a test environment 
so I can understand it better; it does seem this will require helping other 
stuff to work the way we need before actually building it.


Yeah, I realized that I didn't actually answer your question. It could be useful to have an environment where dogtag & bind-dyndb-ldap are able to work, and then sort out any integration issues there might still be.
