--- Begin Message ---Package: libnss-mdns Version: 0.8-5 Severity: normal After today's Sid dist-upgrade, programs couldn't resolve names anymore. E.g. "ping www.google.com" fails with "ping: unknown host www.google.com". An strace of the failing ping is below. I have never used libnss-mdns, but it was upgraded during the last dist-upgrade so it is suspect. I'm not sure why it is installed at all, I certainly never used it. I see that there is the following entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf: hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 changing this entry to hosts: files dns made things work again. # strace ping www.google.com [...] socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 4 setsockopt(4, SOL_IP, IP_MULTICAST_TTL, [255], 4) = 0 bind(4, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(0), sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0 setsockopt(4, SOL_IP, IP_RECVTTL, [1], 4) = 0 setsockopt(4, SOL_IP, IP_PKTINFO, [1], 4) = 0 fcntl64(4, F_GETFD) = 0 fcntl64(4, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fcntl64(4, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) fcntl64(4, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 open("/etc/resolv.conf", O_RDONLY) = 5 fstat64(5, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=34, ...}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7f6f000 read(5, "search local\nnameserver 127.0.0."..., 4096) = 34 read(5, "", 4096) = 0 close(5) = 0 munmap(0xb7f6f000, 4096) = 0 open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY) = 5 read(5, "\377\31", 2) = 2 close(5) = 0 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFCONF, {192, {{"lo", {AF_INET, inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}}, {"eth0", {AF_INET, inet_addr("192.168.4.1")}}, {"wlan0", {AF_INET, inet_addr("192.168.1.1")}}, {"vmnet1", {AF_INET, inet_addr("172.16.160.1")}}, {"vmnet8", {AF_INET, inet_addr("192.168.215.1")}}, {"ppp0", {AF_INET, inet_addr("84.57.79.55")}}}}) = 0 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFFLAGS, {ifr_name="eth0", ifr_flags=IFF_UP|IFF_BROADCAST|IFF_MULTICAST}) = 0 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFFLAGS, {ifr_name="wlan0", ifr_flags=IFF_UP|IFF_BROADCAST|IFF_RUNNING|IFF_MULTICAST}) = 0 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFINDEX, {ifr_name="wlan0", ifr_index=3}) = 0 sendmsg(4, {msg_name(16)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(5353), sin_addr=inet_addr("224.0.0.251")}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\31\377\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\3www\6google\3com\5loca"..., 38}], msg_controllen=24, {cmsg_len=24, cmsg_level=SOL_IP, cmsg_type=, ...}, msg_flags=0}, MSG_DONTROUTE) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) close(4) = 0 write(2, "ping: unknown host www.google.co"..., 34ping: unknown host www.google.com ) = 34 exit_group(2) = ?
