Ubuntu follows the same principle as Debian in terms of licensing.

Openldap cannot be compiled with openssl due to the conflict between the
license of programs linked to libldap and OpenSSL license:

  program (Program license) <-linked-> libldap <-linked-> libssl (OpenSSL license)

We have programs in the archive which license is incompatible with OpenSSL
license.
