Hello James, or anyone else affected, Accepted nis into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/3.17-32ubuntu6.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .

Ok, I did the backport. This package is somewhat scary old at some places (no patches, dh compatibility level 1 - well undefined).

[Bug 1204530] Re: yppasswd results in a segmentation fault when run on clients or server
First of all thanks for checking the fix. and yes so far it is only released for Xenial (16.04). Given the time it was open and the amount of feedback we have got I assumed it wouldn't be worth an SRU - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates. I'm still not sure if it is worth an SRU given the diminished adoption of yp* in the field. However, I'm not sure this bug would qualify under that policy, although I am not on the SRU team and cannot make that decision. I think it might be for trusty given the remaining 3 years of support. I don't tihnk it has chances for wily. If this is very important to you and upgrading to the upcoming LTS is no option for you do you think you could follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure for the paperwork. Most of that is already done (for Xenial) in the bug, so I'd just ask you to discuss it with the SRU team to buy into your need. And if the SRU team in general agrees I could prepare the upload for the final review by the SRU Team. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1204530 Title: yppasswd results in a segmentation fault when run on clients or server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1204530/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

We have the same problem on our Ubuntu 14.04 installations (100 users and no-one can change password; that is a security issue). We do not intend to patch such basic packages like nis ourselves - at least I thought we would not need to because we run Ubuntu LTS.

[Bug 1204530] Re: yppasswd results in a segmentation fault when run on clients or server
As I looked back at everything I did before I see that I had tested the updates in Virtualbox using the 32 bit Xubuntu releases. For the 32 bit releases the segmentation violation began when I updated the client from 12.10 to 13.04. I reran the same experiment in virtualbox last night and still got the same behavior with the 32 bit releases: current release of 12.04 LTS on the server works, 12.10 works, 13.04 fails. I have an older CD burned that I labeled Xubuntu 64 bit 12.04.1 LTS available. I'll try the same experiment starting with that one when I get some time to get a 64 bit virtualbox running on my current platform. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1204530 Title: yppasswd results in a segmentation fault when run on clients or server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/1204530/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It was whatever was available in July. I installed two XUbuntu 12.04.? LTS systems under VirtualBbx and confirmed then that it worked before making the bug report. I also updated both virtual systems through 12.10 and 13.04. As I recall, the problem began when the client system was updated to 13.04. (Wish I had posted the results of that experiment.)
