A user has contacted me privately to report a regression with the package in -proposed:

The solution was that > /etc/init/ypbind.conf > is waiting for a local server which is obviously not running when you > use another server. > I commented out the lines 43-45 and now it's working. The issue here is a wrong check in the ypbind pre-start script. We're accidentally trying to start ypserv in all cases that we're running ypbind, when we should only be trying to start it if NISSERVER is set to a value other than false. Marked verification-failed; I'll work on preparing a new package. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-failed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nis in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569757 Title: NIS upstart dependency broken for lucid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/569757/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
