[Bug 1428486] Re: Only start rpc.statd if $NEED_STATD

[Steve Langasek]

Rather than an advisory comment, I think the correct thing to do is to
read any (non-default) value for NEED_STATD from /etc/default/nfs-common
and do a one-time translation to the corresponding enable/disable
operation.

Title:
  Only start rpc.statd if $NEED_STATD

Status in nfs-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  A remaining TODO item from the systemdification (bug 1312976) was to
  only start rpc.statd if /etc/default/nfs-common enables NEED_STATD=.
  This is a bit awkward with systemd and we generally avoid/move away
  from such "enable the unit" config files as they are redundant with
  update-rc.d enable/disable and systemctl enable/disable (which is the
  canonical way to enable/disable a unit).

  We should probably just add a comment pointing to systemctl
  enable/disable, and make sure that this works as intended.
