Package: libnss-ldap Version: 251-7.5etch1 Tags: patch etch Hello.
There is a bug in libnss-ldap that makes some applications fail because of an assertion failure. The assertion failure is similar to this one: ldap-nss.c:1312: do_init: Assertion `cfg->ldc_uris[__session.ls_current_uri] != ((void *)0)' failed. This problem is repeated on several bug reports for different packages: #375533, #418615 and #418619. As you can see on http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=375533#131 the bug was fixed in upstream in version 255, but a backport of the fix has never been done in etch. There is even a patch for version 251: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=131;filename=libnss-ldap_251-7.02.diff;att=1;bug=375533 It would be nice to see this bug solved in etch, because of the annoying nature of it. In my case, it made both mailscanner and cyrus-imapd fail, giving little information, when using ldap because /etc/libnss-ldap had permissions 600. PS: I will happily provide any further information needed, but i think that the information on the mentioned bug reports should be enough.
