Nevertheless during this procedure it turned out that there is quite some code duplicated between nfs-utils and libnfsidmap. Questions: a) why nfs-utils duplicates some part of libnfsidmap and still depends o it b) is there readon for code duplication? Licensing or so c) what ww need to do to get rid of duplication I expect the answer of 'c' will contain something like time and man power. I am volunteering to to pend some time on it. Regards, Tigran.
