Package: libnss-ldap
Version: 251-5
Severity: grave
Hello,
I tried to upgrade to libnss-ldap 251-5 and the upgrade failed with a
beautiful error:
Setting up libnss-ldap (251-5) ...
Can't locate object method "host" via package "ldap" (perhaps you forgot
to load "ldap"?) at -e line 1, <> line 21.
dpkg: error processing libnss-ldap (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 9
And nothing works anymore, since it seems that the
/etc/libnss-ldap.conf was overwritten without asking me anything.
I tried to dpkg-reconfigure -plow libnss-ldap, and I got the same error
again, leaving with a quite empty config file (only the header
comments...)
I guess there's something seriously wrong in the upgrade process.

Version: 251-5.2
I've NMUed for this bug (fixing the bug to use versioning instead of the
"fixed" tag, to ease tracking through testing); here's the changelog:
> libnss-ldap (251-5.2) unstable; urgency=high
> .
> * Non-maintainer upload.
> * When doing substitutions in libnss-ldap.conf, pass the values to the Perl
> program as environment variables instead of directly to the program;
> should eliminate the problems with having to escape them.
> (Closes: #376684, #386141)
> * Change the init script policy. Instead of stopping libnss-ldap.init on
> clean shutdown (touching a file) and starting it after networking (rm-ing
> it), we touch the file in /lib/init/rw as soon as possible (right before
> udev is started, touching a file) and stop it after initial system
> bootup.
> This fixes both issues with /var being on a separate partition, and
> unclean shutdown where the file would not be created. (To make sure we
> don't get similar problems during shutdown, we create it in runlevels 0
> and 6 as before, but we don't assume it's still there when we boot, since
> it's on a tmpfs now.) (Closes: #375077)
> * Block SIGPIPE in do_atfork_child(), as some versions of libldap2 in some
> circumstances (notably with TLS enabled) write data onto our dummy socket
> during close, which raises a SIGPIPE that should not be delivered on to
> the
> application. (Closes: #376426, #388574)
