I have done the first step, see https://obs.kolabsys.com/request/show/195
So now there is an uptodate package (>= 2.4~) for python-ldap
available for Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 in the Development repository.

Side note to the list:
there is this problem sometimes on OBS when building packages for Ubuntu:

[  409s] [199/204] installing initscripts
[  409s] Selecting previously unselected package initscripts.
[  411s] guest environment detected: Linking /run/shm to /dev/shm
[  411s] rmdir: failed to remove `/run/shm': Device or resource busy
[  411s] Can't symlink /run/shm to /dev/shm; please fix manually.
[  411s] dpkg: error processing initscripts (--install):
[  411s]  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error
exit status 1
[  411s] Processing triggers for man-db ...
[  412s] Errors were encountered while processing:
[  412s]  initscripts
[  412s] exit ...

Retriggering the build usually helps.
Any idea if this could be fixed somehow?
