FreeBSD phy 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE #0: Sat Sep 23 12:13:17 JST 2000     root@phy:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DV  i386
>Description:
By default, /compat/linux/etc/yp.conf points to non-existent NIS domain
inside localhost.  Some linux ports require proper configuration;
e.g., WordPerfect 8.

In case of WordPerfect 8, the installer and xwp blocks almost infinitely
because of repetitive query to non-existing local NIS server (which
seems to be incurred by linux libc).

>How-To-Repeat:
install wordperfect8 on linux_base-6.1

ktrace /usr/local/lib/corel/wpbin/xwp

>Fix:
Just comment out all lines of /compat/linux/etc/yp.conf.
