Hi,
I did an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade on a box, then got into the
issue described at
http://lists.ltb-project.org/pipermail/ltb-users/2015-December/000653.html

Of course, I forgot about doing that ! But tell me, who will not ? :D
When upgrading all the packages of a server you can't think of all the
special cases that some packages could lead to. This would be a
nightmare to maintain ;)
Here is a suggestion : why not include a systematic 'backupconfig' prior
to every package upgrade ?

What I did is to copy
/usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/schema/ppolicy.ldif to
/slapd.d/cn=config/cn=schema/cn={3}ppolicy.ldif then editing the first
line from:
dn: cn=ppolicy,cn=schema,cn=config
to
dn: cn=ppolicy
Then slapd started without any glitch, so I don't understand why I
didn't get the warning you mention. Is it the good way to do it ?
Do I need to do anything else or should I consider the issue is solved ?
