I don't particularly care about Fedora 22. I *do* care about RHEL/CentOS 6 and 7.
OK
I think we all agree on separate package for libnss_sss.so.2 :-)
So let's split discussion into two parts
A) fedora + weak dependencies
Would that work for you?
libnss-sss
Supplements: glibc-common%{?_isa}
B) rhel
IIRC your initial mail you proposed to
add requirement to sssd-common on require 32 and 64 bit "libnss-sss"
+ remove automatically generated dependencies for libnss-sss.i686
otherwise the installation of sssd-common.x86_64 would install
32bit glibc
If yes please file downstream bugs for rhel6 and rhel7.
I am not sure whether we want to complicate upstream spec file for rhel.
(It's already complicated enough due to rhel/fedora compatibility)
Or do you prefer to have such change also in upstream spec file?
