[Bug 2012676] Re: [BPO] nfs-utils/1:2.6.1-2ubuntu4 from kinetic

[Mattia Rizzolo]

Right, well.. backports are not done to be compatible with the base
distribution, of course.  They have to be manually installed by the
system administrators knowing what they are doing exactly for this
reason.  But huge incompatibilities for sure make for a "negative
point".
