Package: slapd Version: 2.2.23-8 Severity: minor This concerns only BDB, where slapd is installed as well as db4.2-util. The init script performs the db4.2_recover at startup, which is brilliant.
The problem occurs when admin has set a user+group to run slapd as non-root in /etc/default/slapd (which is non-default installation) : db4.2_recover still runs as root and sets wrong file permissions in /var/lib/ldap/, which results in slapd not being able to start. I suggest the init script be upgraded to running db4.2_recover as user/group set in /etc/default/slapd, if set. Unless I am being oversimplifying this should be easy to fix. Thanks for the great packaging around slapd! Vincent
