changed. Now /etc/nsswitch.conf looks like this:

shadow: files
Sorry, I should've said replace all compat by files
having compat in group: will still cause the db mixup
So I'll go back to where I was to get a running sendmail again ... :)
The price of living on testing... especially when the primary build
machine is out of comission. I find unstable to often be more
stable that testing; but then I need to be on the bleeding edge.
The real problem here is that libdb4.5 on ppc is downlevel - it has no
ELF symbol versioning. And since sendmail was built with libdb4.5, it
will cause the problem you see when libnss-db later loads db4.3 :(
So we might have a missing dependency on a special version of libdb4.5
for the latest sendmail packages ?
no, sendmail has a dependancy on:
libdb-4.5.so => /usr/lib/libdb-4.5.so (0x0feb7000)
it is just that the version of libdb currently on powerpc is broke - and
sendmail was built against that broken libdb.
Unless you happen to be using compat, you wouldn't see the issue.
My setup is 'files ldap', so I never saw the problem
see ... I'm too tired by now to even consider a stock Debian kernel
install ... :)
No need, it *is* the library issue - we already had the issue on i386,
and removing compat fixed the problem; and the strace matches yours.
I just saw they're at 2.6.22 already at kernel.org .. :)
2.6.21 stable, 2.6.22-rc4
