(In reply to comment #0) Same problem. > should I file a separate bug about net-libs/libnfsidmap requesting to have it > installed into /lib ? Then not only libnfsidmap should be in /lib, but also liblber, libldap, libssl, libcrypto (on my system for example). So it will be a bad idea, I think. You better reemerge libacl without nfs flag - then there will no this dependency and also this bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162664
Any news on this?
nope ... as noted, moving libnfsidmap to / is not desirable due to all the baggage it can pull in
*** Bug 165546 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This issue is a MAJOR f**kup -- we should do something about it. If you currently set up a new system with /usr on LVM and USE="acl nfs", your system fails to boot and is 100% unusable, it is even *unfixable* without external hands-on (like booting from a live-cd etc. and recompiling coreutils resp. acl) :(
Why not modify coreutils to build cp, mv, and ls statically?
Heath's idea seems to be a good compromise until a more time-proof solution is found. Don't you think ? This bug is still marked as new, is still problematic and is around since September 2006, which is 6 months from now ! Something has to be done about it... About the idea of moving libnfsidmap.so* to /lib, I don't understand why it could be an issue in the short / medium term. On my system, ldd for libnfsidmap.so reports dependencies on libc and ld.so only so it shouldn't be most of a problem (coreutils merged with USE flags acl nfs & xattr). Should it ?
forgot to say it was with coreutils-6.9... here is my emerge --info if it can be of any use... System up to date as of today for all the overlays btw.

Any news on this one? I just build an initrd (with genkernel) to get a bootsplash. Everything was OK until I pressed F2. In verbose mode I started to see these libnfsidmap errors. System is still booteable and seems to work. Booting _without_ splash=... ; same kernel, same initrd, same videomode I see no errors. Is this just a bootsplash bug? Regards, Norberto
I'm sorry. I forgot to add myself to this bug
*** Bug 183598 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
What i did to fix my system that boots NFS Root then mount /usr on NFS is change net-libs/libnfsidmap ebuild install function to: src_install() { emake install DESTDIR="${D}" || die dodoc AUTHORS ChangeLog NEWS README # move shared libs to / dodir /$(get_libdir) mv "${D}"/usr/$(get_libdir)/*.so* "${D}"/$(get_libdir)/ || die "could not move shared" gen_usr_ldscript libnfsidmap.so } This one change is the difference between my machines booting over NFS or not. On some mythtv frontends (client machines) i have all of them sharing /usr to save disk space on the server.

So, vapier, are all of the solutions listed here not sane? If so, what can we do to fix this situation?
there are no solutions here as moving libnfsidmap into / is not really feasible as Alexander perfectly enumerated in comment #3 disabling USE=nfs for libacl via package.use.mask is probably the way to go
Blocking USE=nfs for ACL means that you can't use ACLs with NFSv4, which sucks too. Combining this this with libnfsidmap built with USE=ldap, means that libnfsidmap is linked against libldap, liblber, and because of those, also libssl and libcrypto. The only solution that solves both problems of booting and having ACL support for NFSv4, is moving those 4 libs into /lib/. crypto = 1.5M, lber = 56k, ldap = 223k, ssl = 308k. I've CC'd the ACL NFS patch author to here, and looking around, I see that Fedora dropped the ACL NFS patch for the same above reason.
that is why i said package.use.mask it. people are still free to unmask it on their platforms and get the functionality, it's just up to them to make sure their /usr is on the same partition as /. i've gone ahead and done this now. dont know how complicated the NFS4 patch is, but it could be given a small layer where it dlopen's things. the patch needs to be tweaked at any rate to touch configure so it's a proper build option instead of patching Makefile's to force it on all the time.
The patch in question does some complicated translation to make it possible for a user to manipulate nfsv4 acls as if they were (less complicated) posix acls. There's a separate package: http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/nfs4-acl-tools/ which provides client tools (gui and commandline) for manipulating nfsv4 acls directly without a translation layer on the client. (The linux server still does similar translation.) Due to its obvious problems and limited purpose, the nfsv4<->posix-translation patch is something that should applied only for users that are interested in NFSv4 specifically, aren't satisfied by the nfsv4 acl-specific tools at the url above, and understand that this particular patch is experimental. There's some work ongoing to make the annoying dependencies run-time instead of compile-time; that should be announced on nfsv4@linux-nfs.org when it's ready.
the nfs4-acl-tools package is in the tree ... that would seem to fill the gap for people who need it the only advantage i can think of off the top of my head is that being in libacl allows standard utilities to copy things (like cp or rsync)
Note: The just added "sys-apps/acl nfs" mask in base/package.use.mask has a rather undesirable effect: It blocks nfs+acl also for NFSv3, not just NFSv4 where libnfsidmap is required. Thus it breaks existing functionality for NFS3 users who weren't affected by the libnfsidmap problem in the first place. (Here, it broke backups, due to a "setfacl -m g:backup:rw- ..." failing). Perhaps sys-apps/acl could also use the nonfsv4 USE flag which nfs-tools uses, and if set, allow acl without libnfsidmap?
that really doesnt make sense. you either get nfs support in libacl or you dont. there is no "it works for nfsv3 but not nfsv4". libacl either supports nfs via libnfsidmap and thus has the /usr issue or it doesnt. i dont know what magic you expect to get by renaming the USE flag.
NFSv2/v3 use exactly the same user<->kernel interface for acls as do ext3 and other linux filesystems that support posix acls. It's only NFSv4 that's special. So if you have libacl (and libacl support in cp, ls, etc.), then you've got all you need for v2 and v3.
*** Bug 210091 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
bfields: has upstream made any progress on this per your comment #21 that was looking into making the deps runtime instead of buildtime?
I haven't been following this as closely as I should, but I *believe* that libnfsidmap now loads the libraries it needs with dlopen() at runtime. So the dependency on libnfsidmap is still there, but it shouldn't depend on as much (in particular, it shouldn't have a compile-time dependency on krb5 any more). So, it would be worth retrying with the latest libnfsidmap (>=0.21).
ping
Is this still a problem today? Comment #28 mentions improvements.
the nfs flag has been dropped from sys-apps/acl so it's no longer an issue
