Greetings, aiui, even the 'mount' provided previously by mount would have failed if portmap (well, lockd, I'm guessing) was unavailable. Therefore, having mount only Recommend nfs-common is the appropriate solution. Having nfs-common only Recommend portmap doesn't make much sense since 'mount.nfs' principally doesn't work w/o portmap. The same is not true for 'mount', which can do the vast majority of its regular stuff w/o 'mount.nfs'.
So, people who needed NFS mounts working must already have nfs-common
and portmap installed, therefore there's no disappearance of features
during the upgrade path.
Please to be fixing.
Thanks,
Stephen
