Which is why winbind *Recommends* libpam-winbind and libnss-winbind.

As we already said ad libitum here....or there....we are not here to
rescue people who shoot in one's own foot by not installing
Recommends.

So, sorry but no.

I'm very tempted to close this bug report and will just downgrade it
as of now.....I'm leaving it off to Steve to close it. I'm certain he
agrees with me, here, and the best way for him to say so is probably
by closing the bug report.
