[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1 v3] package/unscd: new package

[Yann E. MORIN]

Doug, All,

[CCing Maxime, as he knows systemd better than I do]

On 2015-10-09 09:10 -0500, Doug Kehn spake thusly:
> A daemon which handles passwd, group and host lookups for running programs and
> caches the results for the next query. You only need this package if you are
> using slow Name Services like LDAP, NIS or NIS+.
> 
> This particular NSCD is a complete rewrite of the GNU glibc nscd which is a
> single threaded server process which offloads all NSS lookups to worker
> children; cache hits are handled by the parent, and only cache misses start
> worker children, making the parent immune to resource leaks, hangs, and crashes
> in NSS libraries.
> 
> It should mostly be a drop-in replacement for existing installs using nscd.

We have recently readicated use of 'echo -n' and all other non-POSIX use
of echo. Please, use printf instead.

Please use suitable-extractor, like so:

    $(call suitable-extractor,$(UNSCD_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS)) $(DL_DIR)/$(UNSCD_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS) \
    |$(TAR) xf -C $(@D) -

Please use apply-patches, like so:

    $(APPLY_PATCHES) $(@D) $(@D)/debian

Not that it matters a lot, but I think using $(INSTALL) to create
directories should be favoured, like so:

    $(INSTALL) -d $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants

Maxime, what's your opinion on this systemd unit?
