Package: slapd
Version: 2.2.23-1
Severity: normal
Found 2 errors in the update/upgrade script that render the update
process unuseable for some users.
1. The new Slapd 2.2 parser seems to dislike a line like this:
"loglevel 256 ### this is a inline comment"
The old version didn't seem to care, this one does, if you can just
line break right after/before lines like this if possible (yes this
will cause problems with multi line ACL's)
2. ACL rewriting.
First off, thanks very much for doing much of this work, saved
me a huge headache rewriting some of my rules.
However: if you have 2 acl lines as such:
access to .....
by dn.subtree.....
by dn.one......
access to ....another ...
by dn.subtree....
by dn.one.....
the rewriter throws a nice fit, and rewrites them as one really
long line. Which the parser has absolutely no idea how to
parse, and doesn't load the new database when trying to slapadd
the backed up ldif file.
Adding a pair of ##'s between the line however seemed to work
fine. It feels like you missed a new line as a new empty line
rule as a delimiter for the ACL parser.
Thanks again, and keep up the wonderful work.
