Yepp.

It is required since inetOrgPerson is SUP organizationalPerson which is
SUP person.

You have to resolve object class inheritance.

Fortunately you can use ready-to-use methods:

  ldap.schema.subentry.SubSchema.attribute_types()

Or the convenience wrapper method:

  ldap.schema.models.Entry.attribute_types().

BTW: Attribute types are derived via SUP too...

Additionally I'd recommend to use the schema browser in
http://www.web2ldap.de to dig your local LDAP server's schema. :-)

Ciao, Michael.
