IMHO we have to make a decision on this *NOW*. The release will be in two
weeks and I was told the current version of NIS in "frozen/unstable" does
_not_ work with the libc 5.4.23 in "bo". There are already some packages
in the archive, that depend on "libc5 >= 5.4.23", so they will have to be
changed before the release, if we revert back to 5.4.20.
I only see these possibilities now:
- - We find someone that can fix the NIS packages _NOW_. This person will
have to upload the fix package until mid of next week.
- - If we don't have some person, we'll have to much 5.4.20 back into "bo"
and change the packages that depend on 5.4.23.
- - We ship "bo" without NIS--I don't think this is an option.
Thanks,
Chris
