Maybe start a ypbind-mt2 and yp-tools4 for that. Binding to an ipv6 NIS server is not something anyone really needs I don't suppose.

(sorry, forgot in the previous post) I can upload and maintain libnsl2 if you'd be interested (I don't see much use of it for anything else except NIS/YP). FYI, the corresponding package in fedora is https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=979855

Also, would you be interested in upgrading all YP/NIS tools to their latest versions? They require libnsl v2 (v1 is included in our glibc). I have ypserv, ypbind-mt, yp-tools and libnsl built and working on our infrastructure. So far so good, even in a mixed environment (ypserv and yp-tools from current git on NIS master/slave and ypbind-1.38 on fedora clients)...

@bidulock: Of course yp-tools builds fine without ypbind, but I think so does ypbint-mt without yp-tools... However, ypbind-mt needs domainname.service from yp-tools and yp-tools are useless without binding to a YP domain. Therefore, yp-tools should express an optdepend on ypbind-mt.

Circular dependency removed. yp-tools builds fine and passes namcap without ypbind-mt.

@mrshannon how do you even build these with the circular dependency?

mrshannon commented on 2017-08-09 16:04 (UTC)

Something will need to be done about the circular dependency as it makes building these packages very difficult and error prone.

bidulock commented on 2017-08-02 13:25 (UTC)

That's the way it was when it moved from official repos. Likely because they should be in the same package.

Just curious, why does this depend on yp-tools and yp-tools depend on this at the same time?
