To reproduce, do a fresh install then dpkg-reconfigure that after config options
will give:

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd

  Moving old database directory to /var/backups:
  - directory unknown... done.
  Creating initial configuration... mkdir: cannot create directory
`/etc/ldap/slapd.d': File exists
