Unfortunately, no. The behavior is still the same.

Yes, that's what I was thinking as well. However, I could actually
reproduce the problem with Fedora 20 and Rawhide as well before I was
reporting the bug here, so I assumed the issue on Fedora was the same.

I also talked with Lennart on this regard and he said it's an issue
with nfs-utils which wasn't ordering the dependencies correctly, but I
wasn't able to track down the origin up the bug yet. All I know is
that it happened on Fedora as well and I need to perform a fresh
installation of Fedora and test without updates.

That's a good starter, thanks a lot for the heads-up! I'll see if I
can find more.
