Subject: slapd: Unstable upgrade (2.1 -> 2.2) failures

Package: slapd
Version: 2.2.23-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

1) use of ldapi:/// fails:
 ldap_url_parse_ext(ldapi:///????x-mod=0777)
 daemon: bind(10) failed errno=2 (No such file or directory)
 slap_open_listener: failed on ldapi:///????x-mod=0777

 The cause seems to be that the ./configure script had bad settings -
 the binary expects /var/run/run/ldapi instead of the proper
 /var/run/ldapi

2) error in parsing the saved ldif file:
 Setting up slapd (2.2.23-1) ...
   Enabling LDAPv2 support... already enabled.
   Updating config access directives... done.
   Moving old database directories to /var/backups:
   Loading from /var/backups/slapd-2.1.30-3:
   - directory dc=cavein,dc=org... slapadd: could not parse entry
     (line=316) failed.

 Well, that was a helpful message (I know, not your fault) :)

 The issue seems to be that slapcat created the root entry like this:
  uidNumber: 0000
  gidNumber: 0000

 but slapadd barfs on that, saying it is an invalid number! Changing
 the 0000 to 0 for the user and group settings worked fine
