Public bug reported:
Hello, I'm not sure if this is a bug or a wishlist item.
I'm having issues upon bootup with a service daemon freezing (ntpd in
this case). I think the problem would go away (not necessarily fixed
but no longer seen at least) if libnss-ldap was built with
HAVE_LDAP_INITIALIZE defined (in config.h.in). Since OpenLDAP libraries
are a "depneds" for libnss-ldap, and since OpenLDAP has
ldap_initialize() (and ldap_init() while we're at it), then why not
activate these features by default?
I can provide lots of information about my particular problem symptoms with
ntpd if needed.

What I expected to happen:
No connection be made to an LDAP server due to a call to initgroups() by a
process whose uid/username is listed in nss_initgroups_ignoreusers in the
/etc/ldap.conf file.
What happened instead:
It seems that a connection is made anyways.
Thank you,
Deric Sullivan
