Re: [Pam-mysql-general] About NSS

[Gary W. S. <ga...@pr...>]

I can't really say it's dead.  I've had 3 emails to/from the author in the
last week.  For the most part I believe that he mentioned it's stable and no
need to develop it any more.

But what is the specific compile issue you are having?  I'm not familiar
with Mandriva but I have a SRPM I made for RHEL 4 that is working fine.
