Not to beat a dead horse and not to bash on Debian (personally Debian is
the only distro I use), but to further help other people make a decision as
to which version they should/may want to install: the slapd package
included with Debian or the latest version from source:
The Debian community is fully aware of the numerous issues with their
OpenLDAP package and acknowledges that it needs work, they have also been
asking for help with OpenLDAP for some time (1878 days according to their
"work-needing packages" list):
openldap (#512360), requested 1878 days ago
Description: OpenLDAP server, libraries, and utilities
Reverse Depends: 389-admin 389-ds-base 389-ds-base-dev
389-ds-base-libs 389-dsgw adcli alpine am-utils aolserver4-nsldap
apache2-bin (200 more omitted)
Installations reported by Popcon: 163954
As the entry specifies bug #512360 in the BTS gives additional
information about what work is needed:

Plain syncrepl.
As I said I hope to be upgrading to the latest version in the next
couple of months. Right now I need to get through this problem
the best I can.
Known issue with 2.4.31. Solution is to upgrade and stop using the
crap shipped by Debian. The LTB project now has a deb repository
for their builds, I'd advise investigating switching to using it.

What has A to do with B, and how can you conclude C from A or B?
B obviously has to do with A. A qualified maintainer would maintain some
presence with the upstream project.
C you can conclude from years of interacting with the Debian project, like
I have.
