Package: rootlesskit
Version: 1.1.0-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

In LDAP-based environments both "getsubids myusername" and "getsubids 1234" (where "id myusername" equals to "1234")
can return exactly the same subuid ranges. This happens when one of /etc/subuid or nss returns mappings for both the
user id and the user name. Both "newgidmap" and "newuidmap" fail when the parameters contain duplicate ranges.
This in turn makes rootlesskit fail.

Release 1.1.1 of rootlesskit fixes this issue by eliminating duplicate subuid ranges before calling "newgidmap" and
"newuidmap".

Please fix this bug for Bookworm.

Best wishes
