Nss-systemd not found

English Applications

Hello all,
I have an application that is requiring nss-systemd.
Unfortunately the installer is not able to find it in systemd package that I have it installed.

Any suggestions here?

Always big thanks in advance for who will spend time trying to help

@mark07 See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/nss-systemd.html it’s actually systemd-userdbd

Hello @malcolmlewis , big thanks as always for the answer.
I went through the link.
I have installed systemd package in my machine but it is not finding systemd-userdbd.
Could you point me to the package to be installed for having it?

Then, after that, should I follow the instructions reported to activate nss-systemd modfying mentioned files of the link?

Let me know when you have time and super thanks

@mark07 it’s part of systemd, maybe a typo?

systemctl status systemd-userdbd.service

     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-userdbd.service; indirect; preset: disabled)

zypper se --provides /usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-userdbd.service

Thanks @malcolmlewis .
Yes I have the same as you.
Last question, since when I try to install the app it is saying nss-systemd not found.
Should I follow the link and activate the nss-systemd service to let the installer seeing it?

Big thanks again

I tried to do solution 1 but downgrading and replacing systemd is breaking the system (I cannot login anymore with GUI).

Do you have any idea?

PS big thanks in any case for the patience and help already.

@mark07 why downgrading systemd? I suggest you talk with the application developers as to why your having an issue…
