    389 Directory Server 1.2.11.X Discontinued for EL6

The 389 Directory Server team announces the binary release of 
389-ds-base version 1.2.11 for EL6 will be stopped via temporary COPR 
repository. We encourage you to switch it to the official version 
included in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 distribution or its 
equivalent OS.


      How to switch to the official version

Remove a yum repo file which points to the temporary COPR repository 
(e.g., nhosoi-389-ds-base-epel6-epel-6.repo) from /etc/yum.repos.d.

If the current 389 Directory Server 1.2.11 has the greater build number 
than 15, for instance, 1.2.11.32, downgrade it once by “yum downgrade” 
as follows.

|yum downgrade 389-ds-base 389-ds-base-libs|

Then, upgrade to make sure you have the latest version.

|yum upgrade 389-ds-base|

After upgrade completes, run *setup-ds-admin.pl -u* to update your 
directory server/admin server/console information.

|setup-ds-admin.pl -u|

As I have been vocal in the past regarding advanced features in the 1.2.11.X line…

I have downgraded from 1.2.11.32 to 1.2.11.15-47 in my test environment.  Initial testing
shows things going quite well.  I expect to migrate my prod environment to 1.2.11.15-47
next week.

Thanks much for the email to push this to happen.
