Package: libnss-ldapd Version: 0.9.12-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The search for enabled services in /etc/nsswitch.conf breaks when using the Swedish locale. In the debconf ".config" script we have the nss_list_configured() function. Compare the output in the "C" and the Swedish locale: LANG=C sed -n 's/^[[:space:]]*\([a-z]*\)[[:space:]]*:.*[[:space:]]ldap\([[:space:]].*\)\?/\1/p' /etc/nsswitch.conf | xargs gives passwd group shadow which is correct, whereas LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8 sed -n 's/^[[:space:]]*\([a-z]*\)[[:space:]]*:.*[[:space:]]ldap\([[:space:]].*\)\?/\1/p' /et\ c/nsswitch.conf | xargs gives group and the difference seems to come from the presence of the "w" character. Thus the passwd and shadow entries are turned off in /etc/nsswitch.conf on each package upgrade. Replacing the character class [a-z] by [[:alpha:]] seems to restore functionality: LANG=C sed -n 's/^[[:space:]]*\([[:alpha:]]*\)[[:space:]]*:.*[[:space:]]ldap\([[:space:]].*\)\?/\1/p' /etc/nsswitch.conf | xargs passwd group shadow LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8 sed -n 's/^[[:space:]]*\([[:alpha:]]*\)[[:space:]]*:.*[[:space:]]ldap\([[:space:]].*\)\?/\1/p' /etc/nsswitch.conf | xargs passwd group shadow Found this on a bullseye-bookworm test upgrade. For some reason, checking the nsswitch file did not occur to me until after lots of checks for LDAP/SSL/Database problems etc. Then I remembered the same thing happend a few years ago on the buster->bullseye upgrade. Thus I really should have isolated and reported the problem years ago. Sorry about that. Thanks for maintaining (and being upstream) for this package.
