BTW: Since you are the maintainer of libtirpc-netconfig - do you know if /etc/netconfig will only be needed by nscd, or if it makes more sense to allow it in abstractions/nameservice?
Whom do you mean with "you"? You send the mail to a mailing list, and the mailing list is clearly not the maintainer: Defined in package: Base:System/libtirpc bugowner of libtirpc-netconfig : tsaupe maintainer of libtirpc-netconfig : dirkmueller, elvigia But to answer your question: every package linked against libtirpc or loading a shared library or plugin linked against libtirpc needs to be able to read /etc/netconfig. So, if somebody enables NIS on his system, every application could end in the situation to need access to that file.
