I see that we're indeed still shipping /etc/ldap/ldap.conf in the library package. This is a Policy violation (8.2); we really should do something about it. All values are commented-out in the default version and the library seems to run fine if the file is missing entirely. I propose we just move the file into /usr/share/doc/libldap-2.4-2/examples and mention it in README.Debian.
