In order to agree that this bug should be closed, I need to understand how my
configuration is incorrect. Could we try some experiments to see if this goes
away?
My /etc/nsswitch.conf has the following:
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

Greetings,
If this is a bug at all (which I doubt), the assertion failure is
actually in the LDAP code, not in the libnss-ldap code at all.. In
the end I expect this is a configuration problem though and if the
user doesn't want system accounts in LDAP then they need to adjust
their /etc/nsswitch.conf appropriately to handle it correctly.
Thanks,
Stephen
