[Bug 507089]

[Carlosmaug]

Hi, today I have realize that this bug is affecting us also. We have
just decide to move to TB from Evolution. If nscd is not installed on
the system TB even does not start, it gave SEG FAULT an crashes. If nscd
is present TB starts but you can't configure accounts or access some
menus such as addons menu. Ive tried to add users in /etc/password but
no way it still crashes.

Is it there any workaround for this??

Ubuntu: 10.10
TB: 3.1.7
nscd 2.12.1-0ubuntu10.2
libldap 2.4-2
libnss-ldap 264-2ubuntu2

The last lines of strace are this

read(53, "#\n# LDAP Defaults\n#\n\n# See ldap."..., 4096) = 198
read(53, "", 4096)                      = 0
