Thread: ANN: python-ldap-2.3.12

Find a new release of python-ldap:

  http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-ldap/2.3.12

python-ldap provides an object-oriented API to access LDAP directory
servers from Python programs. It mainly wraps the OpenLDAP 2.x libs for
that purpose. Additionally it contains modules for other LDAP-related
stuff (e.g. processing LDIF, LDAPURLs and LDAPv3 schema).

Ciao, Michael.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Released 2.3.12 2010-08-05

Changes since 2.3.11:

Lib/
* Removed tabs from various modules to make things work with python -tt.
* Quick fix to ldif.is_dn() to let multi-valued RDNs pass as valid.
  Is too liberal in some corner-cases though...
* Fix to ldif.is_dn() to allow dashes in attribute type (see SF#3020292)
* ldap.open() now outputs a deprecation warning
* module-wide locking is now limited to calling _ldap.initialize().
  Still ldap.functions._ldap_function_call() is used to wrap all
  calls for writing debug log.

Modules/
* New LDAP options available in OpenLDAP 2.4.18+ supported in
  LDAPObject.get/set_option():
  ldap.OPT_X_KEEPALIVE_IDLE, ldap.OPT_X_KEEPALIVE_PROBES,
  ldap.OPT_X_KEEPALIVE_INTERVAL,
  ldap.OPT_X_TLS_CRLCHECK, ldap.OPT_X_TLS_CRLFILE

Doc/
* Various small updates/improvements

Looks like an older OpenLDAP release. Please try the patch below.

Ciao, Michael.

This patch fixes it.
Will you release a 2.3.12.1 version for this fix?
