If I understand correctly, ActiveState has its own releases of
python-ldap repackaged in pypm files,
and has several releases per python-ldap versions.

So, why it doesn't have its own versions ? like: 2.3.10.2 in that
case. (following a PEP 386-compatible scheme)

So this would be:

'python_ldap-2.3.10.2.egg-info'
