E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The attempt to parse out the olcDbDirectory in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/slapd.postinst:get_directory() fails if there is more than
one matching file, which there is on my system - there's an emacs backup file
(i.e. olcDatabase={1}hdb.ldif~). Made the following patch:
--- slapd.postinst 2009-01-29 22:32:24.000000000 +0000

for f in `get_all_slapd_conf_files`; do
which is more robust in the face of multiple matches. Extra credit is
given for explicitly grepping out junk.
