    Summary: A wrapper for the user, group and hosts NSS API
    Description: 
    There are projects which provide daemons needing to be able to create, modify
    and delete Unix users. Or just switch user ids to interact with the system e.g.
    a user space file server. To be able to test that you need the privilege to
    modify the passwd and groups file. With nss_wrapper it is possible to define
    your own passwd and groups file which will be used by software to act correctly
    while under test.
    
    If you have a client and server under test they normally use functions to
    resolve network names to addresses (dns) or vice versa. The nss_wrappers allow
    you to create a hosts file to setup name resolution for the addresses you use
    with socket_wrapper.
    
    To use it set the following environment variables:
    
    LD_PRELOAD=libuid_wrapper.so
    NSS_WRAPPER_PASSWD=/path/to/passwd
    NSS_WRAPPER_GROUP=/path/to/group
    NSS_WRAPPER_HOSTS=/path/to/host
    
    This package doesn't have a devel package cause this project is for
    development/testing.
