[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#774316: fails to upgrade to jessie with "cannot add entry with empty dn"

[Antoine Beaupré]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.40-3
Severity: grave

This package cannot be upgaded to jessie:

Paramétrage de slapd (2.4.40-3) ...
  Backing up /etc/ldap/slapd.d in /var/backups/slapd-2.4.31-1+nmu2... done.
  Moving old database directories to /var/backups:
  Loading from /var/backups/slapd-2.4.31-1+nmu2:
  - directory dc=koumbit,dc=org... failed.

Loading the database from the LDIF dump failed with the following
error while running slapadd:
    slapadd: line 1: cannot add entry with empty dn=""
dpkg: erreur de traitement du paquet slapd (--configure) :
 le sous-processus script post-installation installé a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 1

I don't believe I had anything fancy going on here.
