Exactly. When an application calls getpwent() (for instance), glibc parses nsswitch.conf for the passwd: line, finds the "compat" item, and dlopen()s /lib/libnss_compat.so.2.

Applications shouldn't link against it directly.

And symlinking them allowed the mysql_connect detection to proceed. As I'm about 8 hours behind on this install, I'll figure it out later.

If you run "mysql_config" on your system, what's it output?
