Name        : nss_db
Product     : Fedora 13
Version     : 2.2.3
Release     : 0.5.pre1.fc13
URL         : http://sources.redhat.com/glibc/
Summary     : An NSS library for the Berkeley DB
Description :
Nss_db is a set of C library extensions which allow Berkeley Databases
to be used as a primary source of aliases, ethers, groups, hosts,
networks, protocol, users, RPCs, services, and shadow passwords
(instead of or in addition to using flat files or NIS). Install nss_db
if your flat name service files are too large and lookups are slow.

Update Information:

This update incorporates a counterpart patch for an issue fixed in glibc which could cause applications which called getgrouplist() or initgroups() from multiple threads to receive an incomplete list of group memberships.

ChangeLog:

* Wed May 18 2011 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 2.2.3-0.5.pre1
- import patch to handle initgroups directly rather than forcing libc to
  use the enumeration interfaces, which could result in two threads calling
  initgroups() at the same time to both get a subset of the right answers
  (#705466)
* Tue Feb  8 2011 Fedora Release Engineering <rel-eng at lists.fedoraproject.org> - 2.2.3-0.4.pre1
- Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild
