It's authselect.
# rpm -qV glibc
....L.... c /etc/nsswitch.conf
# ls -l /etc/nsswitch.conf
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 Nov 18 04:58 /etc/nsswitch.conf ->
/etc/authselect/nsswitch.conf
My clean F29 installation had no such symbolic link, has to "authselect
select --force ..." to force the creation of the link.
The non symlinked /etc/nsswitch.conf even had the header:
# Do not modify this file manually.
# If you want to make changes to nsswitch.conf please modify
# /etc/authselect/user-nsswitch.conf and run 'authselect apply-changes'.
So, was it generated at some point by authselect and not as symbolic link?
Note: Today I got new update for authselect (1.0.2-1.fc29)
