RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2023435

I am copying this bug because: 
Minimization of containers is a RHEL-wide effort, this change could help a bit with making the RHEL-9 containers smaller.


Description of problem:

nss_wrapper is used in non-root containers to create missing user entries:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/container/postgresql/blob/rawhide/f/root/usr/share/container-scripts/postgresql/common.sh#_183

And in containers, every MB is counted. nss_wrapper by default pulls in cmake and many other packages, because it ships cmake config file. In total, it's around 100MB unpacked.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss_wrapper-1.1.11-6.fc35

How reproducible:
easily

Steps to Reproduce:
1. podman run -ti --rm fedora bash -c 'yum install -y nss_wrapper'

Actual results:
  <other dnf output snipped>
Install  78 Packages
  <other dnf output snipped>
Installed size: 109 M
  <other dnf output snipped>

Expected results:
Ideally only nss_wrapper library is installed.

Additional info:

I'd suggest to introduce a nss_wrapper-libs package that can ship only the library.  A PR for this change in Fedora is at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nss_wrapper/pull-request/1

This change should be backward compatible, as installing nss_wrapper would result in the same files installed.

I've figured our I opened the request to RHEL-9 twice, closing one of them.
