[augeas-devel] [PATCH] nsswitch.conf lens missing "compat" databases

[Travis Groth]

Hi,

While testing some configuration updates in puppet, we've discovered that the nsswitch.conf lens is missing a few databases that are available on Linux to redirect the compat/nis queries to different sources for netgroups, etc.  They were probably missed as they aren't explicitly listed in the man page, but mentioned under "Interaction with +/- syntax (compat mode)".  The fix is pretty trivial - see below.  Hoping this can get into the next release as we need this functionality in our environment shortly.

Thanks,

Travis
