Issue ID: 9722
           Summary: UX defect in screen to specify new password
           Product: OpenLDAP
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needs_review
          Severity: normal
          Priority: ---
         Component: slapd
          Assignee: bugs@openldap.org
          Reporter: christos.hayward@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---
On a Debian 10 Linode, I ran:
"aptitude install slapd ldap-utils".
The screen prompting for a password was written in a way that led me to believe
I was being asked for a password previously set as an LDAP password.
This reflects a UX defect.
I suggest a wording that shows clearly that one is being asked to assign a new
password to LDAP, not enter a pre-existing password already assigned to LDAP.
