Subject: [PATCH v4 02/14] daemon: Bind-mount /etc/nsswitch.conf & co. only if it exists.

From: Ludovic Courtès <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2025 15:29:21 +0100

Those files may be missing in some contexts, for instance within the
build environment.

* nix/libstore/build.cc (DerivationGoal::runChild): Add /etc/resolv.conf
and related files to ‘ss’ only if they exist.
