Hi Jens, Christian, any subscribers,

Thanks for reporting this bug, which unfortunately still exists. The
last snapshot which still contains 2.4.23-7.3 and can be used to upgrade
from lenny to squeeze is:

http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20130223T095106Z/

Starting from 20130223T120419Z, 2.4.23-7.3 is in squeeze.

Upgrading to that snapshot, and then to current squeeze, does work.

CCing the release team for an opinion: at this late time, would it be
reasonable to prepare an update for squeeze to try to fix the
regression? If not, can you recommend a place to add documentation about
using snapshot.debian.org for a successful slapd upgrade?

thanks,
Ryan
