Release 2.4.52 packages #48

As I suspected, there are build problems on old platforms because of the new requirement of a recent openssl version

Error message at build:

undefined reference to `SSL_CTX_set1_curves_list'

Errors are happening on these OS:

debian 7-32: OpenSSL 1.0.1t 3 May 2016
debian 7-64: OpenSSL 1.0.1t 3 May 2016
debian 8-64: OpenSSL 1.0.1t 3 May 2016

Debian 9 and 10 are working, because they have openssl versions 1.1.0l and OpenSSL 1.1.1d respectively.

So it may be time to remove support for these old distributions

We will keep the latest working OpenLDAP version in repositories (2.4.51) and advertise in release notes

davidcoutadeur commented 4 years ago

I have made some researches if there were external repositories maintaining openssl for old debian versions, but I have found nothing. It would be possible to add temporarily repositories of Debian 9 or Debian 10 to install new openssl versions, but this would mean selecting a way other users maybe haven't followed, leading to compilation / execution errors.

So I agree, the best option is here to drop support for new openldap versions...

Yes, we do what we can, and will encourage users to migrate on recent distributions.
