ipa host-del --updatedns

Hi,
I'm running VERSION: 4.4.0, API_VERSION: 2.213.
When trying to delete a host using # ipa host-del --updatedns it returns always the
following error even if the DNS record exists.
ipa: WARNING: DNS record(s) of host velo.vm.example.com could not be removed. (No A, AAAA,
SSHFP or PTR records found.)

How to reproduce:
# ipa host-add velo.vm.example.com --ip-address=10.0.20.67 --random
------------------------------
Added host "velo.vm.example.com"
------------------------------
  Host name: velo.vm.example.com
  Random password: xxxxxxxx
  Password: True
  Keytab: False
  Managed by: velo.vm.example.com

# ipa dnsrecord-show vm.example.com velo
  Record name: velo
  A record: 10.0.20.67

# ipa dnsrecord-show 10.in-addr.arpa 67.20.0
  Record name: 67.20.0
  PTR record: velo.vm.example.com.

# ipa host-del velo --updatedns
ipa: WARNING: DNS record(s) of host velo.vm.example.com could not be removed. (No A, AAAA,
SSHFP or PTR records found.)
-------------------
Deleted host "velo"
-------------------
The DNS records are not deleted ...

Thanks for any hint / help
Rgds,
Arsène

What would be handy is the 389-ds access log that covers the delete.
There should be a bunch of searches for these DNS entries. Knowing what
those searches returned may help figure out what is going on.

I've increased the DS log level and restart IPA services and then it did run without
errors, I haven't been able to reproduce the problem with a higher log level.

Thanks anyway for your help..
