Peter, could you please complete the SRU justification? Guidelines at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure - thanks!

** Description changed:

  The problem:
  
  Replication fails if an attribute of a multi-value attribute entry is
  removed if the attribute does not have a equality matching rule defined
  in the schema.
  
  The problem can be mitigated temporarily by a doing a full re-sync by
  removing the affected database and restarting the service to trigger a
  full sync.
  
  This is fixed upstream beginning with the slapd 2.4.25 branch:
  
  openldap-2.4.25/CHANGES: Fixed slapd syncrepl for attributes with no
  matching rule (ITS#6458)
  
  For Ubuntu, this translates to the fix appearing in Oneiric:
  
  slapd | 2.4.21-0ubuntu5.6 | lucid-updates
  slapd | 2.4.23-6ubuntu6.1 | natty-updates
  slapd | 2.4.25-1.1ubuntu4 | oneiric-updates
  
  I am requesting the fix be backported at least to Lucid.
  
  Upstream bug:

+ 
+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ [Impact]: TBC
+ [Development Fix]: Fixed in an upstream release and thus already present since Oneiric
+ [Stable Fix]: lucid-proposed.debdiff, attached - patches taken from upstream git repository
+ [Test Case]: TBC
+ [Regression Potential]: looks to be minimal from looking at the patch. There appears to be a comprehensive test suite that continues to pass with this patch applied.
