[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#380537: slapd: Fails to start after upgrade to from 2.3.23 to 2.3.24

[Peter Hicks]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.3.24-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello

After upgrading from 2.3.23 to 2.3.24, slapd refuses to start:

 pwh at angel:~$ /etc/init.d/slapd start
 No configuration file was found for slapd at /etc/ldap/slapd.conf.
 If you have moved the slapd configuration file please modify
 /etc/default/slapd to reflect this.  If you chose to not
 configure slapd during installation then you need to do so
 prior to attempting to start slapd.

slapd.conf is owned by root.root, and chown-ing it to root.openldap fixes
the problem.  Maybe this should be done by the upgrade script?


Peter.
