Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: autofs5

upon upgrading autofs5, to version 5.0.4-3.1ubuntu5.1, the system complained about non existing directories in
/usr/share/autofs5/conffiles.

Since /usr/share is a good candidate for automounting, and is indeed
automounted and shared between all virtual hosts in my configuration,
this is indeed a very bad idea and creates a deadlock! (Just taste the
word _shared_)

We have a specific directory since the very old days that is always host
specific, which is /etc. This is where host specific configuration files
should be located.
