Package: libnss-sss
Version: 1.11.5.1-1
Severity: serious
Hi,
libnss-sss has the following code in postrm:
sed -i --regexp-extended '
/^(passwd|group|shadow|netgroup):/ {
s/\bsss\b//g
s/[[:space:]]+$//
}
' /etc/nsswitch.conf
This code is executed on removal or purge, unconditionnally.
However, this is a multiarch package, which means it can be removed or
purged while still being installed in another architecture.
Therefore, the following process:
install libnss-sss:amd64
install libnss-sss:i386
remove libnss-sss:i386
leaves an unusable libnss-sss:amd64 installed on the system.
The DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE_REFCOUNT variable (since dpkg 1.17.2)
should help deal with such a situation.
Thanks,

Joss
