Adding entries to the LDAP database without noticing the user about it *is* a 
clear policy violation. If you provide a README.Debian and maybe a script 
which can be called by the administrator manually after the installation and 
which sets up the LDAP data you need, then it is fine for debian. For 
debian-edu you would then need to change the LDAP data within the debian-edu* 
packages. This way cipux would be policy compliant and I do not see a problem 
with that. For an upgrade path we would have to document that maybe the 
script has to be called manually by the admin.

That would sort out this issue and the cipux package can also go into debian 
which is one of our primary goals as we do not want to have debian-edu 
packages only.

Cheers
