Good Moring,
I would like to add some news. I have removed and purged autofs from one of my Thinkpads and installed autofs 5.1.2-1 from Bionic in Xenial. I have used the packages from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/autofs/autofs_5.1.2-1ubuntu2_amd64.de
Surprise, the behaviour is exactly the same as in version 5.1.1. It won't work until the autofs.service is restarted.
