Just to clarify this one a bit: AIUI, this is the same bug we fixed
earlier in the cycle, but it's still a problem after update to the
'fixed' package for some people. It seems to affect two scenarios:

1. Very old installs, from a release where we had authconfig not
authselect, that have been upgraded all the way to F34
2. Installs where /etc/nsswitch.conf has been modified in any way
except via authselect, so authselect won't apply changes to it any more

I believe benzea is planning to try and solve this by having the
package make the specific change to the configuration that's necessary,
in affected cases. We think that just making this specific change in a
package scriptlet should be pretty safe, it shouldn't be able to break
any odd configuration we can think of.
