5349	glibc: Do not build nscd anymore	Xi Ruoyao	lfs-book	"In SysV revision, we don't provide a bootscript of nscd, so it's essentially useless.

In Systemd revision, nscd is enabled by default (with `systemctl preset-all`) but it does not work correctly in my IPv4+IPv6 network environment: it often only caches an IPv4 address of a host name, then the system will never resolve this host to IPv6.  And systemd-resolved already caches the address of hosts much better than nscd does.  Thus I always stop and disable nscd.service once I boot LFS Systemd.

Fedora has also removed nscd in 2022: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RemoveNSCD

We can pass `--disable-nscd` to Glibc configure and remove the commands to install nscd support files & systemd units."	enhancement	closed	normal	12.1	Book	git	normal	fixed
