3520302 - SQLDBC Version Upgrade to Resolve getpwuid Failure

Symptom

The SQLDBC version 2.15.22 is being used and the return code from getpwuid is not relevant due to a flaw in the SAP implementation of threadsafe version of getpwuid. This is causing issues with the determination of the home directory when 2 OS user shares the same uid on Linux, resulting in user key not found when the wrong home was used as the base of the path of the user store. Additionally, LDAP user may fail the underlying getpwuid_r OS call for reasons that need to be explained outside of the software component.
