This bug has now appeared in 14.04 LTS after the upgrade to autofs 5.0.7-3ubuntu3.2 (a couple of weeks ago, it doesn't manifest until autofs was restarted at reboot). The fix in #4 doesn't work. Can we get the 5.0.8-1ubuntu1.2 package backported to 14.04 ASAP? For an LTS release breaking autofs and leaving it without a fix is unacceptable.
