  • This seems like an XY Question to me. You have some problem, and you have concluded that migrating to OpenLDAP 2.5.x is the solution. However, it's a very difficult solution due to the way Debian-based systems are designed. It's a simple question with a very complex set of answers. Other solutions may be much easier for you. Back up and ask about the actual problem you have. – user535733 Jul 31 '21 at 16:03

    Does this answer your question? Why don't the Ubuntu repositories have the latest versions of software? – N0rbert Jul 31 '21 at 17:25
  • You haven't mentioned your release, but an rmadison query makes it look like you're using openldap | 2.4.45+dfsg-1ubuntu1.10 | bionic-updates | source. I see only one release which currently has 2.5.5 in the list; but maybe it's available via 3rd party sources (PPA) but you are using an older release which may reduce your odds a little. – guiverc Jul 31 '21 at 22:48
  • thanks, @guiverc, I'm having an issue removing olcoverlay, got the info LDAP 2.5 version has the ability to remove those. – Dinesh KS Aug 01 '21 at 14:52

Here is an excellent instructions how to find your old data from (automatic apt) backups, and how to manually migrate your data from 2.4 to 2.5 in an event of any error:

  • Could you please put the steps from that link in your answer? Then, if the link breaks, your answer is still useful. Thank you! – Will Jan 29 '23 at 22:45
  • Sorry it's too long. You really need to read the article :/ I'm looking forward for this link to to disappear anytime soon, since it's the official Ubuntu documentation on this very topic. – PHZ.fi-Pharazon Feb 01 '23 at 21:34
