The confirmation isn't really adding new info to the bug that would help move it forward. (Indeed, the bug was never really pinpointed down to a specific test case or root cause - who knows if the drive-by me-too is seeing the "same" memory leak or some other bug that also leaks.) So, the bug probably doesn't really need a status update from us - if we don't have any new info a reply could just be more noise. However, if you're feeling generous one thing I sometimes do with this sort of bug is think about what the next action would be to move it forward in its lifecycle. "If you'd like to help move this bug forward, it looks to me like it is currently blocked because ______." From the linked bug report it says the issue was in 1.13.4 but resolved in 1.13.5 (git) as tested on 2016-11-30. There was never actually a 1.13.5 release, but there are commits in the upstream 'sssd-1.13' branch after 1.13.4 was tagged. So, a brute force git bisection search between the 1.13.4 tag and sssd-1.13's tip might discover the solution. https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/commits/sssd-1-13?after=c7636e4721cb52f1b36bf93a3f27a247f3f9231f+270&branch=sssd-1-13 Bugs that take a long time to reproduce can be a PITA to git bisect though, and it's certainly possible the leak requires more than a single leak fix. Looking through the git tree I spot a number of leak fixes, e.g. just from a few months after the release: https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/commit/e22cbe9326073e6d42fe2118661fa6daaed8638c https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/commit/2fb750062a665dbf318b5ffb2e53f1060e43b8dc https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/commit/312d211e03b9f3769a0362f1767cc59792e32746 So another approach might be to just blindly cherrypick anything between 1.13.4 and 2016-11-30 11:31:50 mentioning "memory" or "leak" and throw them in a package and stick it in a ppa for testing. But this is now more into bug-work than triaging, and without a reliable test case to reproduce it, it's just stabbing in the dark.
