thanks

(Alexander last comment did not make it yet to the mailing list...it
seems that Alioth mailing lists are incredibly slow these days)

Soo http://bugs.debian.org/46467 for the very last comment by
Alexander.

>From this last comment, my conclusion is that, for a feature that is
perfectly dealt with appropriate NIS database utilities, we're
imagining a complete redesign of NSS functions in the glibc.

IMHO, this is completely overkill and I have actually no time nor
motivation, as shadow maintainer, to deal with this.

Hence marking the bug as wontfix.

Please use the NIS utilities to modify NIS-related information.

Anyone wanting to deal with this bug, please reassign it to glibc and
manage to talk with glibc maintainers to explain the issue.
