Package: nfs-common Version: 1:2.6.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have been running mountd without the (Debian's) default "--manage-gids", since it does not result in behaviour that is working in my environment. With nfs-utils 2.6.1, /etc/nfs.conf is introduced. Although there has been some effort to translate /etc/default/nfs-* to /etc/nfs.conf.d/local.conf, it does not with default options that are removed. I understand that it might be difficult to translate something that isn't there, but I implore you to consider options. Maybe the translation needs to be adjusted or maybe there could be a message explaining that the "--manage-gids" option hasn't been found in /etc/default/nfs-kernel-server, but it is (again) enabled in /etc/nfs.conf. At least describe changes from the current version in bullseye to bookworm in NEWS.Debian, since it is a big version difference. And as a side note: I personally think that manage-gids shouldn't be the default, as it is not with upstream. Looking at the history, there wasn't much ground to do it in the first place. The original bugreport #493059 [1] that wished for it, had (also) the request for better documentation. I think that that would've been the best approach and still is. I understand that it is not possible to rollback those changes, but it may be good to ask yourself why something is done the way it is. (But it's also possible that maybe I have overlooked something).
