This cannot have anything to do with my compat changes. This must be something different. I think he didn't reboot after updating glibc. This will break most running services, which uses NSS, like sshd, after such an glibc version update. This also match the fact, that the same problems happens with nss_mysql, which was not changed. The next person in this report has problems with static binaries. With glibc, static binaries using NSS only works, if the installed glibc is the same as used for static linking. Here this is not the case, so the seg.fault of the static binaries is to be expected. There is only one hint which could explain the problem of one of the reporter: It seems, getspnam is broken. But this cannot be the reason for the other problems reported in this bug. > <URL:http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=206294>. His comment about the perl script output doesn't make sense. He must have reconfigured NIS: The old output can only happen, if he does not use shadow over NIS. But with the new configuration, this could be the above getspnam/compat Bug. > Could it be related to your compat changes? Only the compat/shadow problem. All the other problems (nss_mysql, nss_nis, nss_files) cannot have anything to do with this. nss_compat is was not in use and nss_nis was not changed. This are different problems.
