  • Include various upstream systemd unit file updates to ensure correct starting dependencies of nfsd and rpcbind. (bsc#990356)
  • Fix typos relating to version setting in nfs-utils_env.sh. (bsc#990356)
  • Only require a filesystem to be mounted if it isn't marked 'noauto' in /etc/fstab. (bsc#1019211)
