Package: libnss-unknown Version: 0.0.2-1 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512
Dear Maintainer, I tried installing libnss-unknown in a docker container running debian buster-slim. This had no effect, and the unknown service was not added to /etc/nsswitch.conf. Here is my /etc/nsswitch.conf file after installing libnss-unknown: # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try: # `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file. passwd: files group: files shadow: files gshadow: files hosts: files dns networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc: db files netgroup: nis After looking at the packaging files, I noticed that the postinst script depends on the presence of the keyword 'compat' in the list of services (2nd column), for the database names 'group' and 'passwd' (1st column). In my case, no 'compat' service, but 'files' instead. Hence the postrm script did nothing when I installed libnss-unknown. I think the postinst script should be reworked to not depend on the specific 'compat' value, and should instead just add the 'unknown' value.
