The symptom is confirmed as well by Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist,

The real reason is that the post install process of nfs-common
didn't deal with portmap:
$ grep portmap /etc/runlevel.conf || echo not found
not found
I.e., the portmap is not enabled by default as the daemon.

What do you mean, 'didn't deal with portmap'? nfs-common depends on
portmap | rpcbind, so one of them must be installed before it and will
also be started automatically. Did you disable portmap?

The configuration file (or one of configuration files, I don't use it)
of file-rc (alternative to sysv-rc).
