From package "libnss-ldapd" - postinst:
nss_is_enabled()
{
name="$1"
grep -q '^[[:space:]]*'$name'[[:space:]]*:.*ldap.*' /etc/nsswitch.conf
}
In the above regex, the * match on the first space will make this function
incorrectly indicate that "group: mineldap" has the "ldap" module enabled. It
seems that if I had selected to enable the "group" nss entry, it would've
incorrectly not enabled the ldap module.
Throughout the rest of the file, "[[:space:]]*$name" is used several
more times, leading to my situation above.
