Bug Description
The openldap package currently carries its own ufw profile as a delta against its Debian counterpart.
Ryan (Debian openldap maintainer) noticed that the ufw package already installs a profile that covers OpenLDAP as well as other related services:

I'm filing this bug to serve as a reminder to make sure that we remove this unnecessary delta from the openldap package.

As it turns out, the situation is a bit more complex. Although ufw does provide the ufw-directoryserver profile, for some reason we don't install ufw profiles on Ubuntu:
https:/ /git.launchpad. net/ufw/ tree/debian/ rules?h= ubuntu/ master# n90
I'm not sure why that is the case, and git-blame isn't very helpful to clarify the question. I will try to ask around and see if I can understand the rationale behind this decision.
