Hi Malahal,
I have downloaded and used the tarball created by git for the stable 2.2.0 branch, so it should have been consistent. Also, I have used the spec file from Epel to build the rpms. I’m going to try your procedure as well now, to see if anything changes.
Thanks,

	Alessandro

If I do the same after exporting a volume nfs-ganesha does not even start, complaining for not being able to bind the IPv6 ruota socket, but in fact there is nothing listening on IPv6, so it should not happen:
