That is incorrect.  The default values for SLAPD_CONF and SLAPD_PIDFILE that
are built into the init script are sufficient, both in the etch and in the
lenny versions of this package, and only need to be overridden if you are
using non-default values.  Please show us a log of your upgrade so that we
can see what went wrong.
