It looks to me like this will have been fixed by one of these uploads. Can you confirm?
nfs-utils (1:1.2.8-9ubuntu6) vivid; urgency=medium * Revert previous upload; per upstream, rpc.idmapd is not used when the nfsidmap utility is available and configured for use in request-key upcalls. So rpc.idmapd does not need to be started on clients anymore. -- Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@ubuntu.com> Fri, 06 Mar 2015 10:19:57 -0800 nfs-utils (1:1.2.8-9ubuntu5) vivid; urgency=medium * Add 27-systemd-start-nfs-idmapd-also-on-clients.patch: idmapd is needed for clients too, so start it from nfs-client.target and stop binding to it in nfs-server.service. (LP: #1428961) -- Martin Pitt <martin.p...@ubuntu.com> Fri, 06 Mar 2015 11:56:46 +0100 nfs-utils (1:1.2.8-9ubuntu4) vivid; urgency=medium * Add autopkgtest for installing server and client on localhost, setting up two exports, rebooting, and ensuring that the NFS mounts work. * Add 23-systemd-relax-dependencies.patch: Stop depending on basic.target in the daemons which still do; i. e. add DefaultDependencies=no. This makes it possible to run NFS during early boot, helps if you e. g. have /var on NFS, and avoids dependency cycles with rcS init.d scripts which depend on $remote_fs. (LP: #1428487) * Shift number prefixes of other systemd patches accordingly, and adjust them to the above patch. -- Martin Pitt <martin.p...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 05 Mar 2015 10:43:54 +0100 nfs-utils (1:1.2.8-9ubuntu3) vivid; urgency=medium * Add 00git-start-statd-systemd.patch: Latest start-statd script from 1.3.2 to start rpc-statd.service under systemd. * Add 23-systemd-pipefs_in_run.patch: systemd: Mount rpc_pipefs in /run instead of /var/lib/nfs/, like in the upstart units. * Add 24-systemd-daemon-paths.patch: Adjust program paths in systemd units. * debian/nfs-kernel-server.links: Add nfs-kernel-server.service alias symlink, to match SysV init script. * Add 25-systemd-server-before-client.patch: Order NFS server before client, to make mounting NFS shares from localhost work reliably. * Add debian/nfs-utils_env.sh: Translate our /etc/default files into runtime configuration for nfs-config.service. * debian/nfs-{common,kernel-server}.install: Install systemd units. * debian/rules: Enable/start systemd units.
