Public bug reported:

[Impact]

This bug tracks the following MRE updates for the OpenLDAP package:

* <list of Ubuntu series and stable versions being introduced>

See <upstream-roadmap-link>

These updates are a best effort to only include bug fixes, following the
SRU policy exception defined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenLDAPUpdates.


[Major Changes]

See the list of bugs fixed in this release here:
<link to the specific release announcement found at
https://lists.openldap.org/hyperkitty/list/openldap-announce@xxxxxxxxxxxx/>

<Also worth highlighting any important bug fixes, and CVEs fixes added,
and note whether or not already applied in ubuntu.>


[Test Plan]

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenLDAPUpdates#QA

1. Upstream gitlab pipeline results:

<link to results at
https://git.openldap.org/openldap/openldap/.../pipelines>

2. Upstream "call for testing":

<link to testing call message at
https://lists.openldap.org/hyperkitty/list/openldap-
technical@xxxxxxxxxxxx/>

3. As described in the MRE wiki page for OpenLDAP, the test plan is to
   build the package in a PPA and make sure that (a) all build-time
   tests pass and (b) all autopkgtest runs (from reverse dependencies)
   also pass.

* Build log (amd64) confirming that the build-time testsuite has been
  performed and completed successfully:
  - <link to build log(s)>

* Test results:
  - <autopkgtest results and discussion>


[Where problems could occur]

Upstream tests are always executed during build-time. There are many
reverse dependencies whose dep8 tests depend on OpenLDAP so the coverage
is good. Nevertheless, there is always a risk for something to break
since we are dealing with a microrelease upgrade. Whenever a test
failure is detected, we will be on top of it and make sure it doesn't
affect existing users.

As usual we test and prep from the PPA and then push through
SRU/Security as applicable.

* CVEs fixed by this release:
  - <cve list>

* Current versions in supported releases that got updates:
  - openldap | <version> | <release>-security
  - openldap | <version> | <release>-updates
  - <more releases>

* Special cases:
  - <Cases | None>
