[Bug 1855318] Re: autofs tries to find .xdg-volume-info and autorun.inf

[Han Vinke]

The reason of the errors (key ".xdg-volume-info" and key "autorun.inf"
not found in map source(s)) is because the wiki
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs) is incomplete.

At step 4.2. Create /etc/auto.nfs there should have been an additional
creation of the same file in the map /etc/auto.master.d

In the instructions of auto.master it states:

# Include /etc/auto.master.d/*.autofs
# To add an extra map using this mechanism you will need to add
# two configuration items - one /etc/auto.master.d/extra.autofs file
# (using the same line format as the auto.master file)
# and a separate mount map (e.g. /etc/auto.extra or an auto.extra NIS map)
# that is referred to by the extra.autofs file.

So you can simply copy auto.nfs to the map /etc/auto.master.d 
After reloading daemons and restart autofs the errors disappear.
So this is not a bug.

  Could not find any file "autorun.inf" or ".xdg-volume-info" anywhere on my system. Where do these come from?
