But when (manually) adding NSS action specifiers, these do not get removed along. SRU FIX: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg- systemd/systemd.git/commit/?h=ubuntu-xenial&id=2d08d7e481 TEST CASE: * Install libnss-mymachines. This will change the "hosts" line in /etc/nsswitch.conf from e. g. "files dns" to "files dns mymachines". * Edit the file to add an action specifier: "files dns mymachines [!UNAVAIL=return]" * Remove/purge libnss-mymachines. * In current xenial (229-4ubuntu7)/yakkety (231-6) the hosts line ends up as "files dns [!UNAVAIL=return]", i. e. the action specifier now applies to "dns" but should have been removed. * With the fixed version, the action specifier is completely gone. * Re-test with installing libnss-resolve (which inserts itself before "dns") and modifying to "files resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns [foo=bar]", then purge libnss-resolve again -- this should again remove the [!UNAVAIL=return] but *NOT* "dns [foo=bar]". Regression potential: This only affects package removal, so upgrades or new installs are not affected. Removals of libnss-{mymachines,myhostname,resolvle} must be tested carefully to ensure that they don't break nsswitch.conf in any way.
