Package: slapd Version: 2.5.13+dfsg-2 Severity: minor Hi,
the autopkgtests for sudo use debconf-set-selections to preconfigure slapd to test sudo-ldap. The input file was taken from debconf-get-selections output and contained extra whitspace before "when needed": slapd slapd/dump_database select when needed (fixed version) Since a few months, openldap's maintainer scripts choke on that in the case construct that has "when needed" in one of the cases. Those scripts fall through to the *) clause, erroring out. Using a construct like RET="$(echo $RET | sed 's/^[[:space:]]\+//')" before the case fixes the issues for me, but I am not sure whether this is an acceptable fix for the package. Nevetheless, openldap should be able to reconfigure itself after the Debconf database is preseeded with a string that came out of debconf-get-selections. If this is a debconf issue, please reassign appropriately. In sudo, I fixed this by removing extra whitespace from the file Greetings Marc
