I was about to send the following, but I was waiting for the new bugnumber to add the content to. > I don't see why the init script should create /var/run/nscd.

I have the same problem as described in the comment by Yann Rouillard <yann@pleiades.fr.eu.org> (in the bug log). Installing (upgrading) nscd works ok but after a reboot nscd won't start because of the missing /var/run/nscd (I also have /var/run on tmpfs). Pointers to other bugs and discussions: http://bugs.debian.org/344758 http://bugs.debian.org/344760 http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/01/msg00223.html The consensus seems to be that the directory should be created from the init script (and probably not by the package install). -- -- arthur - adejong@debian.org - http://people.debian.org/~adejong --
