I think there's a fix still required here. ldap_initialize is a link to ldap_open, so man should cope, no? I admit that I assumed without checking that the latest release fixed all the man page symlinks, since 2.4.7-5 didn't make the last archive pulse. Aha - this is accounted for upstream, but the Debian package didn't have these listed as manpages to install. Ditto ldap_get_option; I can't even see any manpages in libldap2-dev that look like obvious candidates for this. Where did you find this documented? Well, doc/man/man3/ldap_get_option.3. Are we not installing it? Nope, that one wasn't making it to the package either. I've corrected these now in svn: using a single wildcard for man3/* is a bit easier than listing the manpages one-by-one in debian/libldap2-dev.manpages :) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
