Comment 28 for bug 214810

Hi Chad,

Just to clarify, the original patch I built with was a fix that I saw a discussion on from the Linux Kernel Mailing List Archive; subsequently a tidied up version of the patch made it into the autofs git repo which I referred to in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/214810/comments/26 above - however this patch won't apply cleanly and needs a little effort to be back-ported.
I have discussed this with Ian Kent the maintainer and he has told me that there are a few more patches pending that will be coming soon, so am waiting to see what changes in the next week or so to see if any more relevant commits come into fix this specific issue.

Hope this helps. Colin
