Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libc-bin

My username have > 9 characters. Like 12345678901

While using getent passwd it show all users ok.

If I use getent passwd 12345678901 It return exit 2 (Key not found in
database)

If I use getent passwd 123456789 It return 0 (success) and show the user
informations of 12345678901.

Other package use getent passwd $USER and fail to run (like ecryptfs-
setup-private command).
