[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#902853: ldap-utils: Logfile warnings after upgrade to 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u4

[Stefan van Lieshout]

Hi Randy,

The deinstall of the module libsasl2-modules-ldap solved the issue. It was installed, but not in use and therefore not configured which results in the mentioned warnings.

Grtz,

Stefan
