Package request: nss_wrapper

Please package nss_wrapper: https://cwrap.org/nss\_wrapper.html

It is a small library that allows to fake NSS passwd and group information, by filling a custom passwd file with “fake” information that is used by programs started with LD_PRELOADing nss_wrapper.

This is especially useful inside a container, where information about the executing user might not be available in /etc/passwd, because it was specified on the Docker command-line using the —user argument. In such situation it is necessary to create a custom passwd file containing information about this user, since some programs require this to work properly.
