Hi,

My last tests with nfs-user-server showed that it doesn't work correctly for replicator. Can you test another nfs server before I actually change the deps.


We don't have another nfs server currently.  However, if the requisites in
replicator are generic nfsd funcionality, and no special feature is needed,
you should allow other packages providing "nfs-server" to satisfy it.
This is the theory.

Acutally (you have to test it to believe it) nfs-user-server have a bug with root_spashing which prevent replicator from working correctly. So forcing nfs-kernel-server is a way to save hours of debuging to the user.


If nfs-user-server is a problem for a specific reason, I suggest:

  Depends: nfs-kernel-server | nfs-server
  Conflicts: nfs-user-server


This sounds a reasonnable solution. I'll make test with recent version of the user-server and will act according to the results.

Thank you for this suggestion.
Then we port, for example, FreeBSD nfsd [1] to GNU/kFreeBSD, we can make it
provide nfs-server and everything will work.
