What is left behind, stuff in the configuration file(s), or data in the
ldap-db ?
I think the later is okay, if slapd is still able to run with cipux
removed...

The modification could easily be done in debian-edu-config, and until
slapd.conf and nsswitch.conf is changed to allow inclusion of other

slapd could easily be configured to be cipux ready using
debian-edu-config (sample config file symlinked to overwrite slapd.conf,
cfengine stuff or ...)
