Maybe, but it looks as if my setup is fundamentally different. And it is the same in two f34 machines here.
Both were upgraded for many years so a modern setup probably never got in.


I see.  Well, with the dawn of a new day comes the partial parting of clouds.  Except those belonging to the
typhoon heading our way.

May I suggest a possible fix for the situation to get your system in the "expected" configuration?

Save whatever files are currently in you /etc/authselect directory.

Replace all of the file in that directory with these.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/19ZzXlr7OebZegM27rMWqXBq9TpsRw89g/view?usp=sharing

Make /etc/nsswitch.conf a sym link to /etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf

Then run "sudo authselect apply-changes".  And you should see....

[egreshko@f34x ~]$ sudo authselect apply-changes
Changes were successfully applied

And you should see the timestamps on most of the files /etc/authselect change to the time the command
was run.

Then, edit /etc/authselect/user-nsswitch.conf with some changes to test and run the "authselect apply-changes"
and confirm that /etc/nsswitch.conf has those changes.

If all that goes well, then the next tme glibc is updated your changes should not be lost.

This looks like a big hammer to me. I will consider doing this on a copy of my f34 VM at some point.

Doesn't sound like much of a hammer to me when trying to get things working as they seemed to have been
designed to work.


I will need clearer evidence for what the correct setup is. Note the response from Sam Varshavchik
suggesting their fresh fc30 install has a setup similar to mine.

I should probably install (on a VM)
    Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-34-1.2.iso
to see what I get.


OK.
