Hi, Do you think this patch can be applied ? The "order" keyword in /etc/host.conf is not supported anymore for quite some time. I cannot find which glibc versions uses order line in host.conf before nsswitch.conf is used. Together with the fact this change happened ~7 years ago, here is a patch *removing* the 'order line', and adding nsswitch.conf(5) in references.
