Package: snmpd
Version: 5.4.3~dfsg-2
Severity: important

When the nis package is installed, the postinst script fails.
Removing the nis package, solves this.

The bug seems due to a read hack in the _db_cmd function in
/usr/share/debconf/confmodule

below is a log of what bash executed during installation:
