I suppose it is too late now, but would it be worth renaming perl-ldap to,
I dunno, net-ldap? This better reflects the module name, and is distinctly
different from Netscape's perldap package so it *should* stop people
posting to the wrong list (ha!)

Veering further off topic now, but is "deprecate" being deliberately
mispelled in the source as "depricate"? It kind of bugs me when I see it,
which I'm coming to think is a darn good way of making me fix scripts which
use deprecated (sic) methods :-)

Cheers,
