[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#794999: openldap: include pbkdf2 contrib module into Debian's openldap packages

[Peter Marschall]

Source: openldap
Version: 2.4.41+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream patch

Hi,

please include the pbkdf2 contrib module in Debian's openldap packages.

The attacked patch does this:

* It starts by preparing contrib/password/pbkdf2/pw-pdkdf2.c to work with nettle
  * debian/patches/TS8198-0001-fix-an-always-true-check.patch
    patch is taken from upstream ITS#8198
  * ITS8198-0002-optionally-use-libnettle-instead-of-openssl-for-crypto.patch

* Then it adapts contrib/password/pbkdf2/Makefile to follow Debian's rules
  * pbkdf2-makefile-use-dpkg-buildflags
  * pbkdf2-makefile

* Of course it doesn't forget to add a manual page
  (derived from a patch I sent upstream as a part of ITS#8205)
  * pbkdf2-makefile-manpage

* Finally it updates debian/rules to make sure the module's files get compiled
  and installed

I have this patch included in my private packaging of openldap.

When creating the patch, I tried to
* avoid changing existing patches
  That's the reason for the 'pbkdf2-makefile-use-dpkg-buildflags' patch file.
  Feel free to merge it into 'contrib-modules-use-dpkg-buildflags'
* adhere to existing patch naming logic
  e.g. 'pbkdf2-makefile'
  
Thanks for your work on openldap in Debian!

Best
Peter

PS: support for getting ITS#8198 and ITS#8205 included upstream is very welcome
