[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#665199: Path failure in slapd backup restore install script

[Chris Hiestand]

I can reproduce this; I get a failed slapd upgrade from Squeeze to Wheezy.

For some reason slapcat is never run and the .ldif file is never created.
Then load_databases() is run and tries to access a file that doesn't
exist.
