Public bug reported:

Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
Release:        16.04

I moved to autofs this week as a workaround for Bug #1577575 failing to
mount NFS entries at boot. This worked file until I ran 'apt upgrade'
today.

Now trying to access /vol/home mount results in the following error:

root@chi:~# ls -la /vol/home/
ls: cannot access '/vol/home/': Too many levels of symbolic links
root@chi:~# 

Oddly enough, the other two autofs entries work fine (output trimmed):
root@chi:~# ls -la /vol/media
total 4
...
root@chi:~# 
root@chi:~# ls -al /vol/temp/
total 24
...
root@chi:~# 


I have a scratch VM I can break tonight by performing upgrades individually and 
testing after each.  Will provide that detail when available.


Here is /var/log/apt/history.log
