I know it's a separate upstream, but it's a drop-in replacement, to the point where it can read /etc/nsdcd.conf, so my goal was to just drop nscd from the libc package at once and replace it with unscd. (replacing nscd with a transition package and all that). -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madco...@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
