It's not very high on my TODO list to write a package-specific NEWS file
that explains to users something that follows obviously from how conffiles
work.  If you want to provide a patch, I'll apply it.

Bug#740491: Please provide a NEWS file that informs about necessary changes to idmapd.conf

2014-04-10 Thread Mike Gabriel

Hi Steve,

I have had the same trouble with upgrading a Debian sid system. Indeed  
modifying /etc/idmapd.conf and using /run/rpc_pipefs instead of  
/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs fixed my rpc.idmapd issues for me.


However, I think it would be good to be more transparent about this.  
To me it would make sense adding a NEWS file that informs about this  
necessary change.


Mike
