Public bug reported:
Upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS to 14.04.1 LTS
(slapd-2.4.28-1.1ubuntu4.4 to slapd-2.4.31-1+nmu2ubuntu8), it fails
horribly on my setup with one disk-backend and one ldap-backend (sync to
another server).
First, dump_databases in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/slapd.{config,preinst,postinst} fails due to
get_directory returning "olcDbDirectory" instead of /var/lib/ldap. This
is caused by a missing -h to grep, causing another : in the returned
line, thus causing the '| cut -d: -f 2' to get the wrong part of the
line. This causes both the backup of the suffix to fail, and later the
chown after restore to fail.
grep "olcDbDirectory:" `grep -l "olcSuffix: ...
should have been
grep -h "olcDbDirectory:" `grep -l "olcSuffix: ...
later, get_suffix causes the same suffix to be reported twice, thus
causing database load to fail on the second round of the while since
/var/lib/ldap is already loaded with the correct files, but is expected
to be empty. I fixed it with a '| sort -u' in get_suffix, but i guess it
would be better to maybe redo load_databases' while loop to get both
suffix and dbdir (since you can have the same suffix stored in more than
one location, as I have, and thus first getting the suffix and then
doing a grep for the olcDbDirectory in get_directory will cause the same
storage to be reported for both instances of the suffix)
