[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#417405: slapd upgrade fixed

[Benjamin Reed]

I don't know that this fixed it, but I coincidentally had to fix a
problem with our SSL certificate, and once I did so, slapd restarted
properly.

I had the package ca-certificates installed, and it used to have a file
called cacert.org.crt.  I had symlinked that to a file in /etc/ssl/certs
for use with our cacert-generated SSL certificate for finkdeveloper.net.

Unfortunately, the ca-certificates package upgrade replaced that file
with 2 files, root.crt and class3.crt so our ssl cert was now a dangling
symlink.

I control-C'd the upgrade, and had to kill off the slapcat manually.
Once I fixed the symlink, the upgrade worked.
