Yes, it is a big bummer. Has the OpenLDAP foundation ever considered publishing any official guidelines that could be used both by these distributions and individuals who want to do their own packages? Just two lists of "Do this:â" and "Don't do this: â" would probably go a long way.
The distribution maintainers are quite aware of the objections to the way in which they build their software. Their decisions have little to do with needs of the end users.
