A default DIT is no longer installed by the package:

openldap (2.4.17-1ubuntu3) karmic; urgency=low

   * Install a minimal slapd configuration instead of creating a default
     database with a default DIT:
     + Move openldap user home from /var/lib/ldap to /nonexistent.
     + Remove all code and templates dealing with the default database and DIT
       creation.
     + Add an Authz map from root user (UID=0) to cn=localroot,cn=config and
       grant all access to the latter in the cn=config database as well as the
       default backend configuration.
   * Add cn=localroot,cn=config authz mapping on upgrades.

There isn't a default LDAP directory admin password anymore. Instead the
cn=config tree is accessible when connecting as root using the SASL
external mechanism under the ldapi connection.

Example:

  sudo ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b "cn=config"

  status invalid
