Hello lincvz,

Sorry about the delay.  I have been busy with other stuff and did not
have time to follow up on this bug.  Here is the lay of the land right
now:

1) Unfortunately, it is unlikely that we will be able to get the SRU
team to accept an upload that reintroduces an issue.  This means that
removing the patch that causes the infinite loop is something that we
would rather not do, because another problem will reappear.

2) The ideal course of action here would be to investigate whether it
would be possible to backport the patch at
https://github.com/openldap/openldap/commit/735e1ab14bb055344b4e767a216aa410aa7d1503
and make it fully work.  This is probably a non-trivial task, as Ryan
himself said.

I am still looking into a possible solution for this, but I cannot
guarantee anything for now, I'm sorry (I'm very busy with other stuff,
including updating OpenLDAP in Impish to 2.5!)

Given that I have provided a PPA with a package that fixes the issue for
you, I would say that for now you are better off using it.

Last, but not least: if you feel like giving it a try and trying to
backport
https://github.com/openldap/openldap/commit/735e1ab14bb055344b4e767a216aa410aa7d1503
to the openldap version that's in Bionic, that would be awesome.  We can
review whatever you have and guide you through the SRU process.

Thank you.
