Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.23-7.3
Severity: serious
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hello Mike & all,
with Squeeze Version 2.4.23-7.3 the upgrade path for slapd from
Lenny to Squeeze is now broken (see A1 below).
This could be a policy violation, or am I wrong?
As far as I can see this bug is caused from the fix of #665199 with
2.4.23-7.3,
As suggested from Mike there, here is the new bug report regarding
this.
With slapd 2.4.23-7.2:
Works Lenny ----> Squeeze (upgrade)
Fails wheezy -XX-> Squeeze (downgrade)
With slapd 2.4.23-7.3:
Fails Lenny -XX-> Squeeze (upgrade)
Works wheezy ----> Squeeze (downgrade)
To be verified:
This could have also impact on the slapd upgrade and downgrade between
Squeeze<-->Wheezy<-->Sid
The changes to the installation procedure made between slapd 2.4.23-7.2
and slapd 2.4.23-7.3 pushed the failure to the late upgraders from
Lenny to Squeeze.
The previous version slapd 2.4.23-7.2 worked well in an upgrade
szenario from last Lenny version 2.4.11-1+lenny2.1 (Full patched Debian
5.0.10)
to Squeeze 6.0.6 without any real trouble.
The failure messages are exactly the same as reported in#665199. (see
below).
Instead of giving the same functionality from 7.2 slapd.preinst to
7.3 slapd.prerm the files where just switched. Whether this was
intended
or not, the consequences for the late upgraders to squeeze are really
bad.
(Comparison see A2 below)
Solution suggestion:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Could it be possible to give the functionality of
slapd.preinst from 7.2 back to it in 7.[4].
Best Regards
Jens

squeeze has reached its end-of-life, so there will unfortunately be no
more updates.
Best wishes,
Mike
