I haven't looked at this specific issue, but other issues
relating to
using ldap-enabled software on a host using nss_ldap could be worked
around by using nscd. However, the problems I've seen were fixed in
the latest release of nss_ldap (257). Versions affected were at least
254-256, but it may depend on the ssl library (and version).
More details would help ... (if this hasn't been resolved yet).
Debian has additional issues due to library conflicts (themselves due to
incredibly frustrating licensing nonsense) that aren't nss_ldap's fault
but which using nss_ldap will trigger because that loads the conflicting
library. These issues are Debian-specific since other distributions, so
far as I can tell, just ignore the OpenSSL/GPL license conflict.
