My conclusion:
Drop -f slapd.conf completely in 2.3.x and rather develop good setup
tools...
Well, same question for file DB_CONFIG and attribute 'olcDbConfig'...
I can't see -f going away until at least *everything* supports the new
config backend, which it doesn't.
Besides which point, when I do testing of various setups, I use -f
extensively to switch between configuration files on the same host, which
is a lot simpler than mucking around with various config backends. Other
people may want to keep their slapd.conf files for things like version
control, etc, as well.
