[Bug 237688] [NEW] [SRU] openldap 2.4.9 from 8.04.1.

[Chuck Short]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

I would like to propose to udate openldap from 2.4.7 (current) to 2.4.9,
the reasons for this is the following:

- Already merged openldap for intrepid.
- Been testing it for the past couple of days haven't seen a regression.
- Ran the ubuntu-qa and openldap testsuite against it.
- Fixes a number of bugs after 2.4.7 released (113 Fixed upstream bugs between 2.4.7 to 2.4.9) - 
- Launchpad bugs fixed #218734, #227187
- However, still needs patches backported from HEAD.
- syncrepl not usuable in 2.4.7
- Upstream recommended us not to use 2.4.7 at UDS.

I have attached the following for your review:

- the changelog between 2.4.7 and 2.4.9
- A breakdown of the changelog grouped by syncrepl issues, crashers/hangs, and other bugs. (With the links to the upstream bug tracker)
- The openldap 2.4.9 testsuite run.
- A debdiff between intrepid's version of openldap and hardy's version.

I made the version of 2.4.9 backported in my ppa archive for testing.
Users have tried it and it has fixed issues previously seen in bug
reports for hardy.

If you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks
chuck
