[Bug 1387459] Re: autofs stops working after upgrade to 14.10

[C. Alex. North-Keys]

Problem still exists for 14.04 LTS, any chance we could
get the 5.0.8 version into the 14.04 LTS repo?
(sorry for the brevity, I'm having to edit this in Lynx,
because of side effects of the autofs problem, sigh)

Title:
  autofs stops working after upgrade to 14.10

Status in autofs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I use the autofs to mount my home storage into the /net directory. It
  was working normally until I upgrade to the 14.10 with the following
  error at terminal:

  andre at X61s:~$ cd /net
  andre at X61s:/net$ cd stg1
  bash: cd: stg1: No such file or directory
  andre at X61s:/net$ 

  and in the syslog I got this:

  Oct 29 23:22:58 X61s automount[6818]: key "stg1" not found in map
  source(s).

  My /etc/hosts have this content:
  andre at X61s:/net$ cat /etc/hosts
  127.0.0.1	localhost
  127.0.1.1	X61s

  # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
  ::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
  fe00::0 ip6-localnet
  ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
  ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
  ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

  192.168.25.101 stg1
  192.168.25.111 stg2

  And the output of showmount executed at terminal is:
  andre at X61s:/net$ showmount -e stg1
  Export list for stg1:
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Shows       *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Books       *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Music       *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Series      *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Movies      *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Backups     *

  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Downloads   *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/Documents   *
  /mnt/pools/A/A0/TimeMachine *

  Thanks in advance
  Andre Luis
