nfs-idmapd fails to start

[gregbert]

Hello,

I am running archlinux arm on a pogoplug e02 - for quite some time. i recently did a pacman -Syu, and one of the things that broke was nfs-idmapd, which no longer starts. and gives very limited debug information

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'Feb 22 10:17:03 Pogoplug2 systemd[1]: nfs-idmapd.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
Feb 22 10:17:03 Pogoplug2 systemd[1]: Failed to start NFSv4 ID-name mapping service.
Feb 22 10:17:03 Pogoplug2 systemd[1]: Unit nfs-idmapd.service entered failed state.
Feb 22 10:17:03 Pogoplug2 systemd[1]: nfs-idmapd.service failed.
')

and my systemd service file

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[Unit]
Description=NFSv4 ID-name mapping service
Requires=var-lib-nfs-rpc_pipefs.mount
After=var-lib-nfs-rpc_pipefs.mount

BindsTo=nfs-server.service

Wants=nfs-config.service
After=nfs-config.service

[Service]
EnvironmentFile=-/run/sysconfig/nfs-utils
Type=forking
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/rpc.idmapd $RPCIDMAPDARGS
')

I am still able to access my NFS shares as usual from other machines

Thank you for any help

interestingly, after the -Syu my openntpd also broke. I had to chown root the /var/lib/ntp directory and then it started working again.
