Dan,

Thanks for this.

Firstly, src:nfs-utils is not forked in Devuan and we use Debian's packages
directly without recompilation. So, ultimately, this should be reported to
Debian's BTS for resolution. It should be equally reproducible on a Debian
trixie non-systemd installation, which is still viable.

Reading the commits, I don't see any intention to break non-systemd
installations although there is an intention to migrate to nfs.conf(5).  So,
providing a tested patch to add LSB-initscript support for nfs.conf would likely
be accepted.

It seems that[1] you existing /etc/default config should have been converted to
/etc/nfs.conf.d/local.conf. Has that happened correctly? What does the file contain?

Mark
