Bug 158275 – net-misc/mDNSResponder and sys-auth/nss-mdns should block eachother

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Matthias Vill 2006-12-16 03:53:23 UTC]

sys-auth/nss-mdns provides:
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns.so.2
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns4.so.2
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns6.so.2
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns_minimal.so.2
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns4_minimal.so.2
/usr/lib64/libnss_mdns6_minimal.so.2
/usr/share/doc/nss-mdns-0.8/README.gz
/etc/mdns.allow

net-misc/mDNSResponder provides:
/usr/sbin/mdnsd
/usr/lib/libdns_sd.so.1
/usr/lib/libdns_sd.so
/usr/include/dns_sd.h
/usr/share/man/man5/nss_mdns.conf.5.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/mdnsd.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/libnss_mdns.8.gz
/lib/libnss_mdns-0.2.so
/lib/libnss_mdns.so.2
/etc/nss_mdns.conf
/etc/init.d/mdnsd

I suppose that /lib/libnss_mdns.so.2 and /usr/lib64/libnss_mdns.so.2 will get messed up, because both are inside the searchpath sharing the same name.

amd64 needs a newer net-misc/mDNSResponder stable, its libs are installed into completely wrong location.

[Comment 2 Matthias Vill 2006-12-16 04:14:54 UTC]

As far as I can tell no platform has marked any more recent mDNSResponder stable yet

[Comment 3 Matthias Vill 2006-12-16 04:20:17 UTC]

I just looked over the newer Versions and I think that by providing the opportunity to add a "mdns" target to /etc/nsswitch.conf they will still collide.

multilib-strict itself is not a reason for stablization. that being said, 107.1 has the same issues. kde herd, this is yours.

[Comment 5 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2007-04-27 19:54:00 UTC]

Latest ebuilds mutually block each other now. If I should have overlooked persisting multilib issues in  107.6, open a new bug, please.

Thanks for your bug report Matthias.
