To whom it may concern

I upgraded to Unstable, and I got the following message

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Errors were encountered while processing:
 slapd
 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
 A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
 Setting up slapd (2.4.23-2) ...
   Backing up /etc/ldap/slapd.conf in /var/backups/slapd-2.4.17-2.1... done.
   Moving old database directories to /var/backups:

   - restoring DB_CONFIG for directory dc=hidden,dc=africa,dc=...   - loading DB for directory dc=hidden,dc=africa,dc=... failed.

 Loading the database from the LDIF dump failed with the following
   error while running slapadd:
   /etc/ldap/slapd.conf: line 56: <suffix> invalid DN 21 (Invalid syntax)
   slapadd: bad configuration file!
