Sorry, that's a bug number (not in autofs, but similar): https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1636781 > Would it be useful to provide Ubuntu with patches prior to the > impending autofs 5.1.7 release (after which these patches would > be present on kernel.org)? > > If so I can certainly do that and if we do then from that point > any further changes would be done as follow up patches, so they > would be final upstream patches even though they haven't been > pushed to the repository yet. Sure, and this is the perfect time for that since we are in a new development cycle. I won't be the one working on it, though, as I have been reassigned elsewhere for the next few months. I'll let someone in the team know, and I can still file a bug with the patch(es) attached and let the team work on it. Thanks!
