Bug#926305: closed by Elimar Riesebieter (Re: Bug#926305: nis startup scripts are completely broken)
Please reopen. Advice is no replacement for a Depends in the package control file. As shipped the package is still broken and at the reported severity - breaking most of the system A.

Bug#926305: nis startup scripts are completely broken
That is not an advice. If nscd is a required dependency, NIS should bring it in. Presently it is not. Still broken A.

This looks like a pure systemd conversion issue of some sort. At my systems installing nscd helped. As well setting "YPBINDARGS=" in /etc/default/nis must be. This bug should be closed as there is no response from the reporter. As well it seems to be fixed following the advices given above, though. Elimar -- Anton R. Ivanov https://www.kot-begemot.co.uk/

Bug#281341: Tries to use version 2 bind which is disabled by default
Package: libapache-auth-ldap Version: 1.6.0-8 Severity: normal Either the default for slapd has to be changed to allow v2 or the module should be rebuild to default to 3. The strange thing is that I do not see any references to the actual bind version in the source. Wierd...
