Out of fairness want to note that the most significant component of the problems with the OpenLDAP packages for Debian (and Ubuntu, to a somewhat lesser degree) is that the packaging team has basically no resources.

In this case I'd prefer if a Linux distribution would not add a package at all. At least not a package which was obviously an experimental pre-release at that time. And not hacking the upstream software to work with components known to be buggy. This would save us all a lot of time.

I understand this opinion, but don't share it. Sorry.
