Bug Description

Binary package hint: winbind

It is common to use 32 bit proprietary applications like flashplayer, citrix and acrobat on a amd64 system. The NSS libraries are a vital part of the system as it enables programs to lookup user and group information.
To solve this problem today we have to extract the nss library from the 32 bit package and install it by hand. I think that this should be provided by the winbind package.

Please add the 32 bit nss_winbind library to the winbind package for amd64.

I've added ia32-libs to this bug since that's where most 32bit compatibility libraries go on 64 bit systems.

(But I left samba since I wasn't sure that the ia32-libs guys would want to put this in and that the samba guys probably wanted to know).
