Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.0.10-1
Severity: normal
If /usr is mounted via nfs and /etc/exports is available, /etc/init.d/nfs-common
fails to execute. The reason is that nfs-common is called directly by
/etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs now _before_ any nfs drive is mounted.
/etc/init.d/nfs-common contains the following lines:
if [ -f /etc/exports ]; then
AUTO_NEED_IDMAPD=yes
fi
...
[ -x /usr/sbin/rpc.idmapd ] || [ "$NEED_IDMAPD" = no ] || exit 0
Because nfs-mounted /usr is still not available when executing this
script, it fails.

Having /usr on NFS is a kind of corner case we can't really reliable support
without some interference from a local administrator. Simply set
NEED_IDMAPD=no in /etc/default/nfs-common and your problem will be solved.
(Of course, then you can't have /usr on NFSv4, but then you're back to square
one anyhow.)
