Issue ID: 9638
Summary: ldapsearch.1 documents default value of -T
inaccurately
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.5.6
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: ---

The ldapsearch.1 man page says the default value for tmpdir (-T) is /var/tmp.
The actual default value can come from a number of sources: environment
variables (TMPDIR, TMP, TEMP), preprocessor macros (_P_tmpdir, P_tmpdir,
_PATH_TMPDIR), or a hard-coded fallback (/tmp).
The ldapsearch --help output correctly reflects the default value.
It would be nice if the ldapsearch man page would reflect the actual
compile-time default (LDAP_TMPDIR) and mention that it consults some
environment variables.
