This is not allowed in Fedora. We cannot have DNF failing via
scriptlet *at all*. The result of that is a completely broken
transaction and an unrecoverable system, depending on the scenario.

OpenLDAP Server or do something to prevent the server service from
starting until migration tasks have been complete or something else
altogether.
