Package: autofs Version: 4.1.3+4.1.4beta2-1 Severity: important
Lines in /etc/init.d/autofs which contain "grep -E" (e. g., in umount_loopback) cause the script to fail if the pattern doesn't match (e. g., if there is a non-autofs loopback mount live at the time that /etc/init.d/autofs stop is run, for instance during the package configuration following upgrade). I have marked this bug "important" because it leaves the package in an unconfigurable, non-working state. This can be fixed by adding "|| true" inside the backticks in lines 219, 446, and 469 of the script. I haven't attached a patch because the same problem probably occurs elsewhere in the init script and so this probably isn't a complete fix. But I would suggest fixing at least these lines quickly.
