Hi Roland,

not, it does not work. It tried it now for four times. Every time i installed
slapd i removed (purged) slapd before and did an rm -rf /var/lib/ldap.

I also tried the following:

debrootstrap sid /tmp/slapdrootstrap

after that finished,

chroot /tmp/slapdrootstrap
apt-get install slapd

and get the same.

Have you ever tried to install the current Debian slapd/unstable package on mips?

Greetings
Martin
