Looking at this again, a more complete patch would be:
if (!strcmp(progname, "domainname") ||
!strcmp(progname, "nisdomainname") ||
!strcmp(programe, "ypdomainname"))
type = NIS;
I realize that this functionality has been moved into the nis package, but installing nis
just to provide the domainname functionality has the side effect of a long delay during
boot, accompanied by the message "binding to YP server...".
Stefano Rivera suggested that a package providing the domainname, nisdomainname
and ypdomainname links could be created that is incompatible with the nis
package.
I believe that the patch above, combined with a 'nislinks' package installed
with the hostname package is the solution.
