Same problem here, In my case dpkg-reconfigure worked yesterday but today ends with: Stopping OpenLDAP: slapd. Moving old database directory to /var/backups: Backup path /var/backups/unknown-2.4.23-7.2.ldapdb exists. Giving up... And no change is applied. I had to remove /var/backups/unknown... and after that it worked as exected. Note that even after a completete "remove --purge" dpkg-reconfigure was stuck.
I don't believe this is the same bug as the one you replied to, but I agree that this behaviour is not ideal. In fact the script includes code to generate a unique backup path using the current date and time, but it's not used because dpkg-reconfigure passes the previously configured version which gets used instead. I'm turning this into a new bug report to track that. Thanks for reporting it!
