System: Host: mageia.local Kernel: 5.10.37-desktop-2.mga8 x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 10.3.0

$ sudo urpmi --test ypbind
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
(test only, installation will not be actually done)
Package Version Release Arch
(medium "Core Release (distrib1)")
yp-tools 4.2.3 5.mga8 x86_64
(medium "Core Updates (distrib3)")
nscd 2.32 15.mga8 x86_64 (recommended)
ypbind 2.7.2 3.1.mga8 x86_64
Agreed the lib64nss_nis2 is not pulled with ypbind...
From $ urpmq -i ypbind :
This package provides the ypbind daemon. The ypbind daemon binds NIS
clients to an NIS domain. Ypbind must be running on any machines
which are running NIS client programs.
Install the ypbind package on any machines which are running NIS client
programs (included in the yp-tools package). If you need an NIS server,
you'll also need to install the ypserv package to a machine on your
network.

Summary : Name Service Switch (NSS) module using NIS
Description :
The nss_nis Name Service Switch module uses the Network Information System (NIS)
to obtain user, group, host name, and other data.
This lib(64)nss_nis2 belongs to nss_nis-3.1-1.mga8 package.
$ rpm -qa | grep lib64nss_nis2
returns nothing. This is not installed by default on Mageia 8.
$ urpmq --whatrequires-recursive lib64nss_nis2
lib64nss_nis2
nss_nis is a NSS module for glibc, to provide NIS support for glibc, previously in glibc but "This code was formerly part of glibc, but is now standalone to
be able to link against TI-RPC for IPv6 support."
Nothing more.
Hum. Dependency issue?
