Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.9-1

I came across this problem when testing openldap with the Lenny based
Debian Edu.  The gnutls code in openldap calculate SSF strength
incorrectly, because gnutls report bytes while openldap treat it as
bits.

See
<URL:http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Software%20Bugs?id=5585;page=3>
for the issue and a patch is available from
<URL:http://www.openldap.org/devel/cvsweb.cgi/libraries/libldap/tls.c.diff?r1=1.160&r2=1.161&hideattic=1&sortbydate=0>.

Please apply this patch in the Debian package.

Happy hacking,
