Package: slapd Version: 2.3.23-1 Severity: important After upgrading to 2.3.23-1 I found that slapd would no longer run, with the following message in the syslog:
May 29 09:00:04 cartier slapd[18295]: slapd starting May 29 09:00:04 cartier slapd[18297]: daemon: epoll_ctl(ADD,fd=4) failed, errno=38, shutting down A quick search reveals that OpenLDAP has a build-time check that determines whether epoll works (kernel >= 2.5.44), and enables this feature accordingly by defining HAVE_EPOLL in 'include/portable.h'. This #define is then used in 'servers/slapd/daemon.c'. Either HAVE_EPOLL should be undefined, or the README.Debian file should explicitly specify that the Debian build of slapd does not work on 2.4 kernels.
