That version is no more supported; and backport is not expected as its
not a 'security' problem

Title:
  ldapdelete fails on recursive deletes

Status in openldap package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  ldapdelete -Wx -H ldapi:/// -r dc=test,dc=example,dc=com
  Enter LDAP Password:
  ldap_delete: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error (80)
  ldap_delete: Operation not allowed on non-leaf (66)
   additional info: subordinate objects must be deleted first

  The top level of the database is dc=example,dc=com.  There are a
  couple of hundred subordinate entries under dc=test,dc=example,dc=com.
  According to the ldapdelete man page:

         -r     Do a recursive delete.  If the DN specified isn't  a  leaf,  its
                children,  and all their children are deleted down the tree.  No
                verification is done, so if you add this switch, ldapdelete will
                happily delete large portions of your tree.  Use with care.

  I would expect that this would delete the entire branch of the LDAP
  tree from dc=test,dc=example,dc=com on down.
