However, slapd 2.4.28-1.1/amd64 has a dependency on libsasl2-2 (>= 2.1.24), ... Looking at the package info for slapd: Package: slapd Priority: optional Section: net Installed-Size: 4064 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Original-Maintainer: Debian OpenLDAP Maintainers <pkg-openldap-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: i386 Source: openldap Version: 2.4.28-1.1ubuntu4 Replaces: ldap-utils (<< 2.2.23-3), libldap2 Provides: ldap-server, libslapi-2.4-2 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.15), libdb5.1, libldap-2.4-2 (= 2.4.28-1.1ubuntu4), libltdl7 (>= 2.4.2), libodbc1 (>= 2.2.11) | unixodbc (>= 2.2.11), libperl5.14 (>= 5.14.2), libsasl2-2, libslp1, libwrap0 (>= 7.6-4~), coreutils (>= 4.5.1-1), psmisc, perl (>> 5.8.0) | libmime-base64-perl, adduser, lsb-base (>= 3.2-13) We can see that it's not requiring a newer libsasl2-2. At this point I did an "apt-get install libsasl2-2" and it installed the new libsasl2-2 and allowed the configuration of slapd to finish. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: slapd 2.4.28-1.1ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.36-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Apr 28 15:56:29 2012 ProcEnviron: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: openldap -- SRU Justification -- [Impact] slapd's maintainer scripts make use of utilities like slapcat and slapadd which require a running slapd server, however, the relationship between slapd and libsasl2-2 packages do not take into account a binary incompatability introduced with 2.4.28-1.1. As a result, libsasl2-2 is not upgraded until after slapd, slapd fails to start (with error msg cited in the bugs), and maintainer scripts fail during upgrades with a debconf error like: http://paste.ubuntu.com/965636/ [Development Fix] The issue has been sorted in Debian and in Quantal with the recent merges. A thorough explanation of the fix is available at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=628237#163 . The solution is to update cyrus-sasl2 with: - Breaks: 'slapd < 2.4.25-4' on libsasl2-2 - shlib dependency on 2.1.24 for libsasl2-2 Both of which have been applied to packaging in Debian and synced into Ubuntu Quantal. A no-change rebuild of openldap against the new sasl dependency is required as well. [Stable Fix] The two one-liners from above should be back-ported from 2.1.25.dfsg1-4 packaging and applied to cyrus-sasl2 packaging in Precise. A no-change rebuild of openldap against the newly updated dependency is required as well. [Test Case] To reproduce, install slapd on a lucid installation, populate a minimal LDAP directory and do-release-upgrade. A script to populate a minimal database can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/965633/. [Regression Potential] Minimal. Packaging changes ensure proper ordering of upgrades during dist-upgrade and do not touch original source tree.
