for slapd I'm not sure anymore. for libnss-ldap/libpam-ldap of course it's not needed, but the debian package auto-guesses the configuration from the configuration of that package, and it makes sense to administrate an ldap server from a host that uses it through nss/pam ;) but you're correct, the depends is obviously an abuse. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
