Description xxiao 2014-06-01 17:16:27 UTC

glibc/eglibc has getent built automatically, it should be copied to target root filesystem for package ecryptfs to run.
uclibc has a getent under extra/scripts which emulates getenv in glibc/eglibc.
there might be other packages need getent, which is small in size, I would suggest always put that to target rootfs?
