I can't stop nscd, since we use LDAP for auth and nss services, so downgrading to the older libc6 works. Looks like a patch is in the works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1352876 Titl

I have been bitten by the same bug. I can fix it by grabbing an older copy of libc6 and libc-bin and reinstalling them. Specifically, downgrading from libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14_amd64.deb and libc- bin_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14_amd64.deb to libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13_amd64.deb and libc- bin_2.11.1-0ubuntu
