Bug#513305: Status of unscd, and nscd in Debian



Coin,

Quoting Don Armstrong <don@donarmstrong.com>:

Sure, there's a preliminary package here:

http://svn.donarmstrong.com/deb_pkgs/unscd/trunk/

Besides from a bug in the PREFIX (s/nscd/unscd/), to avoid having a nearly empty package, it is building well. It installs well and is working like a charm. Only the nscd init script had to be borrowed, without any change. The package could just Provides nscd.

I didn't dig deep into the details, and didn't know it could use the same configuration file. Directives not handled are just ignored with a warning message (which could by in syslog btw), which is quite fine, but 'services' map is not supported, which is a regression.

the main reason I haven't yet uploaded it is because I'm unhappy with
the way that it replaces nscd.... but I'm using it in production right
now.

Besides the small regression, i don't see what makes you unhappy.

Do you need comaint ?
