I sent an email to what I hope is email address for Fedora openldap maintainers for epel8 branch but then I realized that might not be possible. It appears like RHEL8 ships the openldap and openldap-clients packages buts purposely leaves out openldap-servers. So given that some RPMs exist and some are missing, how would that be handled to do an EPEL8 build or would that simply not be possible? I took the Fedora 35 SRPM and rebuilt for EPEL8 using mock with no issues but the overlap of openldap and openldap-clients packages I imagine is a problem.
Thanks, - Trey

FWIW we've been doing the same and publishing them here [1] for our own purposes. For now we only use this on the LDAP servers to work around any potential issues on clients.

You would need to make an "openldap-servers" package. It could be the exact same everything as openldap from RHEL, just a different name, and without the openldap and openldap-clients binary packages. Or, if you want, you could use the Fedora version. As far as I know, the server and client don't have to be the same versions. Troy
