Hi folks,



Working on migrating our department ldap server from sl6->sl7.  While I

figured this would be painful, I've bonked at a very early and

unexpected step.  The example/default config file is missing in the rpm:

if that's really true in the repo, this should be fixed.



While rpm --verify returns with no errors, if I ask for verbose output

it does indeed report them as missing:



  $ rpm -v --verify openldap-servers | grep missing

  missing   c /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

  missing   c /etc/openldap/slapd.conf.bak



I've re-installed using yum, it reports:



  (...)

  Installed:

    openldap-servers.x86_64 0:2.4.44-20.el7



  Complete!



but the files are still missing.



So, two questions.



  1) Am I special, or is the master copy of the rpm really missing the

  config file?



  2) Why do I have to ask for verbose output for "rpm --verify" to

  report the missing file?  Usually the non "-v" level of output tells

  you all sorts of good stuff about how what's on disk is different from

  the manifest.  While this is tagged as a config file, I don't think

  that this should mask "plain old missing".



Thanks,

	Alec



PS - the sl6 version is openldap-servers-2.4.40-16.el6.x86_64, so I'll

proceed with a direct copy of the old slapd.conf file and see what

breaks, the version number is "only" four minor versions off...
