Description

Neha asked if python-ldap is really needed on the frontend.

Checking the packaging and the software I saw that in the RPM spec it is a requirement of glideinwms-libs that is used by both Frontend and Factory, but looking at the code that part of code (LDAP/BDII access) is used only in the factory to define entries or check downtimes.

This means:
1. at the moment is a requirement of both factory and frontend
2. we could split the library package and isolate out the libraries that are used only in the factory so that also ldap-python is required only in the factory

She asked if we could do 2 so that ldap-python is no more needed on the Frontend.
