Bug#1032123: RM: libpam-ldap -- obsolete, abandoned upstream, replaced by libpam-ldapd

[Gioele Barabucci]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: pkg-openldap-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org

Dear FTP masters,

please remove libpam-ldap. libpam-ldap's upstream development has ceased 
in 2010 [1,2], the packaging hasn't been updated since old-old-stable 
(Debian 9, 2017) and there are 56 open bugs (11 important) against it in 
the Debian bug tracker.

The release notes of Weezy (Debian 7, 2010) mentioned its retirement:

 > The replacement for `libpam-ldap` is `libpam-ldapd`.

Regards,
