Update: Looking at line 342 in src/base.rs does suggest that users.get_user_by_uid() is a wrapper around getpwuid_r(), which is obviously just a Rust binding for the C function. Again, I'm not really proficient in Rust, but maybe someone with more skill in Rust could look at this.

@gierens do you think this and #616 could be linked ?

@morgan-greywolf Someone traced this back to uzers and opened an issue there. I'll take a look at it later the day or tomorrow.

I looked into this and the short answer is MUSL does not support sideloading the NSS plugins needed to retrieve things from SSSD.

Also, this is a duplicate of #541 therefore I'm going to close this one so we keep the discussion contained in the original issue. There I'm also going to go into more details about the uzers dependency.
