Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initscripts

umountnfs.sh is marked "start on runlevels 0 and 6", it should be "stop
on runlevels 0 and 6" ("defaults" works acceptably). The script is set
to ignore requests to start since it doesn't do any starting.
Alternatively the script should be changed to interpret "start" as "do
your unmounting thing" and ignore requests to stop (umountfs and
umountroot are marked "start on 0 and 6", so I assume they work this
way)

What makes this particularly nasty is that because the NFS share is
still mounted, the system refuses to shut down, getting stuck at ~90% --
thus the box is effectively bricked until someone with physical access
comes and pulls the power by hand...

** Affects: sysvinit (Ubuntu)
