warning: Using 'gethostbyname' in statically linked applications
requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version
used for linking
gethostbyname (and all relative functions) requires shared libraries
to work properly, so if you specify to use ldap for passwd lookups in
/etc/nsswitch.conf, you will _need_ libnss_ldap.so for gethostbyname
to work properly.
Please make your code stop sucking.
Please get a remote clue about what you are actually using before
complaining.
