[Bug 2045241] [NEW] glibc: drop libnss-nis and libnss-nisplus from libc6 Recommends?

[Simon Chopin]

Public bug reported:

Asked by vorlon:

Should libc6 still Recommends: libnss-nis + libnss-nisplus?

Dropping this would let us shed various i386 packages from the package
pool on install images, as well as reducing the size of the base system.
