Public bug reported:

Ubuntu release: 12.04.1

Package version: 0.8.4ubuntu0.2 and 0.8.4ubuntu0.3

We use ldap for user auth. Our /etc/nslcd.conf needed to be customised
with certain tls and ssl options. Here's what the relevant parts looked
like:

    # The location at which the LDAP server(s) should be reachable.
    uri ldaps://ldap.internal/
    # SSL options
    ssl yes
    # needed for internal ldap to connect
    tls_reqcert allow

The security update in 0.8.4ubuntu0.3 was installed.

What I expected to happen: The configuration should have been left as it
was.

What actually happened: the options ended up like this:

    # The location at which the LDAP server(s) should be reachable.
    uri ldaps://127.0.0.1/
    # SSL options
    ssl yes
    # needed for internal ldap to connect
    #tls_reqcert allow

This left us unable to log in to any of our servers.
