[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#920283: openldap: include argon2 hashing contrib module

[Raphael Geissert]

Package: openldap
Version: 2.4.47+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

In upstream's tracker there is a submission of a password hashing
(key-derivation) module using argon2[1].
Given its use of the argon2 library any future move to use libsodium
or similar would not cause any compatibility issue. Moreover, the
generated hashes follow the same format as produced by the argon2(1)
tool.

FWIW, given that the patch is served via ftp, the patch[2] that I can
download from here has
a5c1e1d412c7ad87cdf27624072ecfe10c09d6ebb3c9c36d52590ae89401299a as
its sha256 hash.

Thanks in advance!
