[Pkg-openldap-devel] Dropping SLP support from slapd fro Stretch?

[Luca BRUNO]

Hi all,
we are currently building slapd with --enable-slp, thus linking against 
libslp1.
However, the openslp-dfsg package is pretty much abandoned since 2007 and 
there is a proposal to remove it for Stretch:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795428

As I guess that slapd (and nis) are the main reasons why that library is still 
floating around, I think it could be the case to just stop enabling it.

I've personally never seen it in any operational environment, and popcon count 
for the corresponding daemon is ~200. Any opinion if it is still worth to be 
kept for slapd?

Cheers, Luca
