This is an experimental database driver to provide LDAP support for
debconf. It is not, generally speaking, production level, and I would not
suggest using it for your mission critical cluster config just yet.
That being said, I would welcome any hardy souls who wish to help with
testing this module - the more eyes, the quicker the bugs get found and
stomped.
At present, it is not recommended that you use this module to store
templates. Multilingual templates will most certainly not work, and I
haven't tested default templates either. You Have Been Warned.
To get this to work, you need to do the following:
1) Get /usr/share/doc/debconf-doc/debconf.schema into your DS.
2) Configure debconf to use the LDAP database in some fashion. The
debconf.conf(5) man page has documentation and examples.
3) Make sure that any templates which don't have associated config items
anymore are removed from the templates DB. This is important - if debconf
can find the template but not the config item, it has a fit. Easiest
solution is to use a new templates DB file.
4) Configure your packages as you see fit.
