	Hi,

	I have K7 CPU. Lots of other my hosts have i686.
	Why upgrade to nscd 2.5-8 should bring libc6-amd64 with itself ?
	Are there really any benefits from this, even on x86_64 CPUs ?
	What is so performance-critical in nscd that wins from
	64bit-optimized code ?

	Thank you in advance for your reactions.
	Hope to see this dependency removed or downgraded to
	suggests/recommends soon.

I have just fixed this bug by doing a binNMU on i386. The version
2.5-9+b1 should be fine.
