[Cheer Xiao]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.25-1+b1
Severity: normal


Trying to install slapd results in a post-installation configure
failure. Apparently the post-installation script is using wrong options
when calling slappasswd. Log:

% sudo aptitude install slapd
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
  slapd
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
