[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#586071: libnss_ldap.so from ia32-libs incompatible with libnss-ldapd/nslcd setup

[Florian Wagner]

Package: ia32-libs
Version: 20090808
Severity: normal


I've recently switched from libnss-ldap to the more recent libnss-ldapd
and nslcd setup on my 64bit squeeze install. Since libnss-ldapd is
set to conflict with libnss-ldap that package and it's configuration was
removed.

Recently thereafter I noticed that acroread (from debian multimedia)
doesn't work anymore:

(acroread-en:8958): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (3201)

3201 is the UID of my useraccount with which I'm trying to run acroread.
It is provided by LDAP.

Since acroread is a 32bit executable it uses the libnss_ldap.so from
/usr/lib32 which is the one from the older libnss-ldap project and
as such cannot work together with nslcd. And since the libnss-ldap
configuration was purge, LDAP based resolution doesn't work anymore
for 32bit apps.

A workaround is to use ncsd on the system, but I'd like to avoid that
since I've had problems with it in the past.


Regards
Florian
