Hello,
I noticed that on my Debian jessie installation by looking in /etc/rc5.d that
autofs gets started before the networking script. Somehow I think this does not

For example in my case autofs has to query my internal LDAP
mechanism for overriding the general settings for individual packages.

I have marked the - in my opinion - important and interesting sentence inside
the "upgrade" part with two stars, which should be applying here. I hope this
helps.

On my system the /etc/mailname file has permission 600 and some tools such as
