no locks available in nfs share

[Hansel Dunlop]

statd is required to provide file system level locks for nfs shares. The statd service is no longer riunning by default, or enabled by default when you install the nfs server. I'm not sure.

This means that developers starting a vagrant box will get cryptic errors like this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/837962/nfs-error-no-locks-available-after-update-to-16-10/838630#838630.

Enabling statd solves the issue.

This is an issue in 16.04, and 16.10.

This isn't really a bug in either package, but since your system is forcing me to select one... I've gone with nfs-utils.
