[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#495316: ldap-utils: ldapsearch hangs quering a busy/dead/hanged server (-l x ineffective)

[Paolo]

Package: ldap-utils
Version: 2.3.30-5+etch1
Severity: normal

According to the manual and --help, '-l x' is supposed to make ldapsearch
exit if it cannot get an answer in x seconds.
What I'm seeing instead, is that it hangs indefinitely as if no -l option
was given, and regardless of value of x.

thanks
