openldap-ltb conflicts with package symas-openldap-servers

[Josef Vybíhal]

Did you test it? And does it *actually work* together?

Do you remember the one paragraph on
https://networkradius.com/freeradius-packages/ ?
Note: CentOS and RedHat link their LDAP libraries against NSS. FreeRADIUS
uses OpenSSL. NSS and OpenSSL cannot be used in the same application, as
they will cause it to crash. FreeRADIUS therefore must use libldap from the
LDAP Toolbox Project, which uses OpenSSL.

I kind of smell that Symas has it linked against nss and it will create
conflict(s). So mangling freeradius specfile seems kind of irrelevant to
me. Or am I wrong?

P.
