Package: udev Version: 0.103-2 Hello.
On a fresh etch install, after enabling remote LDAP accounts using 'standard procedure', I got system that prints lots of error messages on boot. All messages are about unable to connect to LDAP server to resolve some groups. I've read the bug reports related to 'udev+ldap'. They seem to describe situations when LDAP lookups caused boot failures; with current installs boot does not fail - only lots of error messages are printed. I've also seen advice to add [UNAVAIL=return] to /etc/nsswitch.conf - this does not shut up error messages. Since all groups mentioned in udev default configuration files are 'system' groups, I could hardly imagine a situation when any of these groups should be resolved by LDAP (or any other network service). They should likely be in local /etc/group. LDAP is called only when they don't exist at all. I think that correct solution for the issue is to make udev package to create (in local /etc/groups) all missing groups referenced in it's default configuration files. This solution: - looks consistent - udev package takes care of groups that are referenced in configuration files of udev package; - should avoid can't-connect-to-ldap-server error messages on bootup, unless something is inconsistent in other packages and/or local sysadmin actions.
