Package: slapd Severity: normal Yesterday I upgraded from slapd 2.1 to version 2.2. I was asked where I wanted to store the database dump. However I misinterpreted the question, the "VERSION" hint made me think that I was asked for a filename template within an already existing directory. Later I realized that I was asked for a directory name only, without the filename part.
So I want to change the directory location to which the backups are made but I did not find any other way than calling dpkg-reconfigure, which is kind of cumbersome since I do not want to set the other options again (such as passwords or organization name etc). So it would be really nice when those options could be set via a shell snippet in /etc/default, or alternatively the slapd/dump_database_destdir setting is asked each time when an upgrade is performed (which would make sense anyway since free space on the partitions is probably subject to change). Calling "db_fset slapd/dump_database_destdir seen false || true" after the database upgrade has been finished would probably be enough to solve this problem.
