[Bug 1387594] Re: init: symbol lookup error: /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libnss_ldap.so.2: undefined symbol: __libc_lock_lock

[Louis Bouchard]

More research have highlighted what seems like a potential solution :

 * https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=727177
                  "Upgrade of libnss-ldap to 265-1 causes important binaries to segfault"

The debian bug description is in line with what is described above.  The
version 265-3 should be merged into Vivid, then the specific patch for
this problem will be SRUed into the impacted releases.

Title:
  init: symbol lookup error: /lib/powerpc64le-linux-

Bug description:
  This bug is specific to the PPC64EL architecture. More details in the
  analysis.

  Many commands that require the use of libnss-ldap will fail with
  Segmentation Fault. The boot procedure itself can be blocked with the
  following message.

  One potential workaround is to remove the use of ldap from the
  /etc/nsswitch.conf file to at least provide a bootable system.
