  initgroups() fails when using libnss-ldap (but not nscd)

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: at

  In all of my installations of Karmic (5 so far), atd jobs refuse to
  run. At the requested time of execution, I instead see the following
  in my cron.log:

  Jan 19 11:48:00 myhost atd[9054]: Cannot delete saved userids:
  Operation not permitted

  Assuming you have the "mail" and "at" executables installed, the bug
  can be repeated with a simple test:

  echo 'echo "testing atd" | mail -s "atd test" root' | sudo at `date -d
  "2 minutes" +%H:%M`

  If it worked, root would receive mail. Instead, you will see the error
  in your logs in one to two minutes. As far as I can tell *all* at jobs
  are affected, rendering this package completely unusable.
