Hello to all reporters of this issue. It seems to me that the upstream
encoded requirements for autofs:

# Required-Start: $network $ypbind
# Required-Stop: $network $ypbind

Have not been properly captured in the upstart job:

start on (filesystem
    and net-device-up IFACE!=lo)
stop on runlevel [!2345]

$ypbind is particularly tricky because it has not been converted to
upstart yet. That is bug #569757

That said, until that bug is fixed, we can just start ypbind in the pre-
start, alleviating this problem.

For $network, the exact meaning of this has never been clear[1], so
emitting it when "the first real interface" is up is probably a decent
best effort.

Given all of that, and the fact that we are the upstream for the upstart
job, I am marking this as Triaged.
