Hmmm. I was suggested by some of bug report on MySQL site.
I've recompiled with --disable-static and nothing was changed.
My ltrace and strace output:
# ltrace -f mysqld 2>&1 | grep getpwnam
getpwnam("mysql" <unfinished ...>
<... getpwnam resumed> ) = NULL
# strace -f mysqld 2>&1 | grep open
[...]
open("/usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
open("/etc/nsswitch.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/lib/tls/libnss_files.so.2", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/lib/libnss_db.so.2", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/usr/lib/libdb3.so.3", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/var/lib/misc/passwd.db", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
open("/var/lib/misc/passwd.db", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
open("/var/lib/misc/passwd.db", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
It seems should work but getpwnam returns NULL.
