Emilio, wins (Windows Internet Name Service) is necessary in nsswitch.conf if one is to get Windows-like Name Resolution. Since I have a Windows computer on this network, and I wish to connect to it by hostname, it requires wins in nsswitch.conf.
I, apparently, have this very problem. No, Liferea does not start if launched with sudo either. The error remains the same. -- liferea-bin crashed with SIGSEGV in _nss_wins_gethostbyname_r() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214192 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
