Seems to be fault of nfs-utils, and not libnfsidmap2. Details in next-
update.

** Package changed: libnfsidmap (Ubuntu) => nfs-utils (Ubuntu)

  LDAP support broken in rpc.idmapd

Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I'm trying to use LDAP support in rpc.idmapd, and I get following
  errors:

  % tail -6 /var/log/daemon.log
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: libnfsidmap: using domain: domain.tld
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: libnfsidmap: Realms list: 'DOMAIN.TLD'
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: libnfsidmap: processing 'Method' list
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: umichldap_init: Missing required information: LDAP_server LDAP_base
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: libnfsidmap: Failed in /lib/libnfsidmap/umich_ldap.so's init(), returned -1
  Dec  9 10:18:53 bk0-srv rpc.idmapd[24360]: libnfsidmap: requested translation method, 'umich_ldap', is not available

  Following is idmapd.conf(5):

  % cat /etc/idmapd.conf
  [General]

  Verbosity = 10
  Pipefs-Directory = /run/rpc_pipefs
  Domain = domain.tld
  # set your own domain here, if id differs from FQDN minus hostname
  # Domain = localdomain

  [Translation]

  Method = umich_ldap, nsswitch

  [UMICH_SCHEMA]

  LDAP_server = ldap.domain.tld
  LDAP_base = dc=domain,dc=tld

  [Mapping]

  Nobody-User = nobody
  Nobody-Group = nogroup

  I'm not sure why rpc.idmapd complains about lack of LDAP_server,
  LDAP_base keys when they're present in the corresponding section
  ("UMICH_SCHEMA")

  Thanks in advance
