Bug#910022: nis: client ceased to work since -no-dbus option given in /etc/default/nis has been removed.

[alex bodnaru <alexbodn@012.net.il>]

Package: nis
Version: 3.17.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   probably the upgrade to debian version -3 brought removal of the -no-dbus 
   option to ypbind, however the option was given in the automatically 
   installed /etc/default/nis, from this version or an older one.
   the binding worked after manual removal of -no-dbus in /etc/default/nis
   
   please note ypbind is behaving very queer, the program does work if i only 
   add -v to the beforementioned -no-debug, however it gives an error.

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***
