Package: libnss-mdns
Version: 0.9-0.1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Hi,
 
  When /usr is not mounted and libnss-mdns is installed hostname lookups will
  fail because lib_mdns* is in /usr/lib instead of /lib.

  Apart from the more obvious things like nfs-mounting /usr, something like
  postfix can also fail as it just copies the nss modules from /lib into it's
  chroot.. Causing a broken setup for resolving, which in turn can cause mail
  bounces..
