Slapd configuration file

Description of problem:
Overlay refint option refint_nothing doesn't function correctly. After delete the last value, an arbitrary value should be used as a placeholder. Attribute doesn't have an arbitrary value, but last value before delete.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openldap-servers-2.4.23-15.el6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.slaptest -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d/
(slapd.conf is in attachement)
2.add entry
dn: dc=my-domain,dc=com
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
dc: my-domain
o: my-domain
description: my-domain

dn: cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: Manager
description: Directory Manager

dn: ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: People

dn: uid=ldap1,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
cn: ldap1
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
uid: ldap1
uidNumber: 10001
gidNumber: 10001
homeDirectory: /home/ldap/ldap1
gecos: ldap1_user
loginShell: /bin/sh
userPassword: {SSHA}vXxC+eHHxf4p16273jJfK1xGrMSn+aUT

dn: uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
cn: ldap2
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
uid: ldap2
uidNumber: 10002
gidNumber: 10002
homeDirectory: /home/ldap/ldap2
gecos: uid=ldap1,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
loginShell: /bin/sh
userPassword: {SSHA}vXxC+eHHxf4p16273jJfK1xGrMSn+aUT
3.ldapdelete -x -D cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com -w x uid=ldap1,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
4.ldapsearch -LLL -b dc=my-domain,dc=com -x "(uid=ldap2)" gecos
  
Actual results:
dn: uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
gecos: uid=ldap1,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com

Expected results:
dn: uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
gecos: cn=missing,dc=my-domain,dc=com

Additional info:
When option refint_nothing missing, the attribute gecos is correctly missing in entry uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com.

I found the problem, working on resolution.

bdb_modify: uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
bdb_dn2entry("uid=ldap2,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com")
bdb_modify_internal: 0x00000005: uid=ldap2,ou=People,dc=my-domain,dc=com
bdb_modify_internal: delete gecos
bdb_modify_internal: replace modifiersName
bdb_modify_internal: delete gecos
bdb_modify_internal: 16 modify/delete: gecos: no such attribute
bdb_modify: modify failed (16)
send_ldap_result: conn=-1 op=0 p=0
send_ldap_result: err=16 matched="" text="modify/delete: gecos: no such attribute"
refint_repair: dependent modify failed: 16
