[Pkg-sssd-devel] Bug#890467: sssd: upgrade from 1.16.0-3 to 1.16.0-5 causes total failure of sssd to work, can not log into machine

[Daniel Lakeland]

Package: sssd
Version: 1.16.0-3
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

I had a working system with sssd providing my users and authentication
using an openldap and kerberos backend. I upgraded from 1.16.0-3 to
1.16.0-5 and the system could not find any users or allow anyone to
login.


I downgraded sssd an associated packages to 1.16.0-3 and rebooted, all 
services were fully restored

Please note, the problem also occurred when I tried to install a brand
new machine based on stable, and then dist-upgraded it to current
testing, which pulled in sssd 1.16.0-5
