Bug Description

Autopkgtests are consistently failing on s390x.

More specifically, the test 04-getroot-sssd is failing.

The reason is not evident because the stderr is being redirected to /dev/null. After testing a PPA without the redirection, I was able to see the error below:

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)

The reason seems to be that the slapd daemon is not ready yet when the test calls ldapmodify.

Adding a simple "sleep", as already done in another place in the same test, is enough to workaround the issue. Ideally it should try the command again if it fails using some sort of exponential backoff.

A sleep-based workaround was proposed as part of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/2025655
