+openldap (2.5.5+dfsg-1~exp1) experimental; urgency=medium
+
+   This is a major release of OpenLDAP, and as such it introduces several
+   changes, new features and deprecations/removals.  This is a
+   non-exhaustive list of things to be aware of:
+
+   * Removals:
+     - The shell backend (slapd-shell) has been removed.
+     - The BDB and HDB backends have been removed.
+
+   * Additions:
+     - New backend: slapd-asyncmeta(5).
+     - New core overlays: slapd-homedir(5), slapd-otp(5), and
+       slapd-remoteauth(5).
+
+   * Changes:
+     - The ppolicy module now provides its own built-in schema.
+       The external ppolicy schema has been removed.
+
+   You can find the upstream announcement containing the full list of
+   changes in the 2.5.x series at
+   <https://www.openldap.org/software/release/announce.html>.
+
+   In certain situations, it is possible that the post-installation
+   scripts will not be able to successfully migrate your current
+   installation to new formats (e.g., when you are using an old
+   backend like BDB/HDB).  If this happens, you will be notified about
+   the failure and the slapd service will NOT be (re)started; you will
+   then have to take manual action in order to migrate your data and
+   start the service.  Please look at the README.Debian file (under
+   /usr/share/doc/slapd/) for more instructions on how to cope with
+   some of the most problematic cases.

+openldap (2.4.49+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+   This release fixes an issue with how the slapo-ppolicy(5) overlay
+   stores the pwdChangedTime attribute in the database. Existing
+   incorrect records could cause slapd to crash if a database
+   administrator uses the Relax control to modify pwdChangedTime.
+
+   Users of the ppolicy overlay are recommended to reload (slapcat and
+   slapadd) their database in order to fix existing data.
+
+   Please see <https://www.openldap.org/its/?findid=9126> for more
+   information.

+
+openldap (2.4.44+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+   The slapd package no longer includes OpenSLP support. The
+   openslp-dfsg package is being retired due to lack of maintenance and
+   security concerns. Please see <https://bugs.debian.org/795428> for
+   more information.

+
+openldap (2.4.23-3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+   The OpenLDAP packages in Debian now use the slapd.d LDIF-based
+   configuration model by default.  Please see README.Debian for more
+   information.

+
+openldap2.3 (2.3.23-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+   The Debian slapd package no longer includes support for the LDBM backend.
+   It has been disabled as a result of concerns over data loss and lack of
+   upstream support.  For more information, see:
+   http://www.openldap.org/faq/index.cgi?_highlightWords=ldbm&file=756
+   The BDB backend is now the main backend to use. This backend is supported
+   upstream and has several fixes included for known problems.
