Hi there,

Please add netbase to the deps of the nfs-common package. Without it 
mounting is impossible, more details may be found in the "Sid: NFSv3 
mounting problem" thread.

A sid user should know this stuff.

This should probably actually be in the rpcbind package rather than 
nfs-common. Once upon a time, when rpcbind was still portmap, it was 
actually part of netbase so a dependency was unnecessary. But rpcinfo is 
expected to convert rpc numbers to names, and it can't generally do that 
without /etc/rpc. nfs-common may *also* want a dependency, since neither 
the kernel client nor the kernel server work properly without it, and in 
fact older versions *did* depend on netbase. There's a note in the 
changelog about removing obsolete versioned dependencies, but that 
probably should have been a conversion to a non-versioned depenedency 
instead of outright removal. But, that might be unnecessary if rpcbind 
adds the appropriate dependency.

That said, you may be the first person to not install using the 
installer, and install nfs-common, and not install nfs-kernel-server, 
and not not install any of the other packages which depend on netbase. 
You just got lucky. :)
