I strongly agree with the comments above. Against considerable management pressure to run all Linux boxes as RHEL/CentOS, I've insisted on building half our systems on Ubuntu Server, notwithstanding the really poor decision to transition from init.d to upstart. But to encounter this sort of brokenness, affecting stuff as common to professional use as keeping /var in its own partition and using nfs mounts, and then see an utter lack of commitment from Cannonical about fixing this, is sad. In other places I've been in the minority claiming Ubuntu is also "enterprise ready." Now I'm kicking myself.

Solution? Please? I'm not just looking for a kludge. This needs a clean, complete, universal solution.
