Actually nscd *is* running but it=E2=80=99s been misconfigured on these mac= hines since a couple of weeks or so=E2=80=94the sysadmins are aware of it and will take a look shortly. What happens is that nscd returns nothing for =E2=80=9Cpasswd=E2=80=9D data= base lookups and as a result, the application (in this case Guile) falls back to its local NSS implementation, which in turns tries to load an incompatible libnss*.so file, leading to this lookup failure. Anyway, this really looks like a setup issue on this machine, so I=E2=80=99m closing this bug and we can discuss it further with the admins if needed, Vincent. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
