[Bug 1878601] Re: Merge nfs-utils from Debian experimental for 22.04 - version in Ubuntu is *very* old

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package nfs-utils - 1:2.6.1-1~exp1ubuntu1

---------------
nfs-utils (1:2.6.1-1~exp1ubuntu1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian experimental (LP: #1878601, #1812280). Remaining
    changes:
    - d/nfs-common.postinst: always start nfs-utils.service, so the restart in
      the #DEBHELPER# section can do its job if needed
  * Dropped:
    - Add remove-gssproxy.patch: Drop gssproxy as it does not exist in Ubuntu
      [Ubuntu has it, but not in main]
    - debian/nfs-common.default: remove NEED_STATD and related comment.
      [/etc/default/nfs-* files are no longer used]
    - debian/nfs-common.default: always start idmapd automatically; drop the
      configuration option.
      [/etc/default/nfs-* files are no longer used]
    - Add 90-gss-free-lucid-sec-context.patch: adjust for changes to the ctx
      argument of the serialize_krb5_ctx() function.
      [Was only needed when libgssglue-dev was used for build, which it
      isn't since nfs-utils 1:1.2.8-7]
    - Fixing nfs-mountd dependency on rpcbind (race condition) by adding
      "rpcbind.socket" to "nfs-mountd.service"  as a dependency to avoid race
      conditions:
      - Add systemd-Fix-nfs-mountd-dependency-on-rpcbind.patch
      [Fixed upstream]
    - truncate_gid*.patch: Backports from upstream to prevent truncating UIDs
      and GIDs over 65536 on certain architectures
      [Fixed upstream]
    - d/p/fix-start-ordering-1.patch, d/p/fix-start-ordering-2.patch, d/p/fix-
      start-ordering-3.patch, d/nfs-kernel-server.install: Fix systemd service
      start ordering
      [Fixed upstream. Patch 3 we don't need anymore because now the pkg
      is built with --with-systemd]
    - Depend on network-online.target when starting services.
      - d/p/lp1918141-use-network-online-target-01.patch: Declare a
        Wants=network-online.target on all NFS server services.
      - d/p/lp1918141-use-network-online-target-02.patch: Declare a
        After=network-online.target on all NFS server services. Thanks to
        Niklas Edmundsson for helping with the reproducer.
        [Fixed upstream]
  * Added:
    - d/control: don't provide libnfsidmap2 in libnfsidmap1
    - d/NEWS: explain some of the major changes in 2.6.x
    - Don't install the regex module, as it's built by
      src:libnfsidmap-regex which is in Universe (MIR: #1960824)
      + d/control: don't conflict/break/etc with libnfsidmap-regex
      + d/libnfsidmap1.install: don't install regex.so
      + d/not-installed: mark files we knowingly don't include in the
        packaging
      + d/p/remove-regex-from-docs.patch: remove the regex section from
        the idmapd.conf(5) manpage, as we are not building that plugin in
        this package
    - Update README files:
      + d/README.Ubuntu: explains some of the packaging decisions
      + d/README.Debian.nfsv4: removed as the content is out of date
      + d/nfs-common.docs: install README.Ubuntu instead of
        README.Debian.nfsv4
      + d/libnfsidmap1.docs: install README.Ubuntu

Bug description:
  nfs-utils has fallen FAR behind upstream, in both Debian and Ubuntu;
  we've had 1.3.4 since Bionic:

  $ rmadison -u debian nfs-utils
  nfs-utils  | 1:1.2.8-9     | oldoldstable   | source
  nfs-utils  | 1:1.3.4-2.1   | oldstable      | source

   nfs-utils | 1:1.3.4-2.5ubuntu3   | groovy          | source

  Version 1.3.4 is from 2016, so we are 4 years behind upstream.

  https://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/nfs-utils/

  Debian has an 'upstream' branch:
  https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/nfs-utils/-/tree/upstream

  as well as a WIP MR:
  https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/nfs-utils/-/merge_requests/1

  and a newer WIP MR:
  https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/nfs-utils/-/merge_requests/3

  
  Someone should get nfs-utils updated in Debian and Ubuntu.
