The package sssd-nfs-idmap should be installed with sssd-1.14.1-3
It needn't be due to weak dependencies. But recommended packages
are installed by default with dnf.

rpm -q --recommends  sssd-common-1.14.1-3
libsss_autofs(x86-64) = 1.14.1-3.fc24
libsss_sudo = 1.14.1-3.fc24
sssd-nfs-idmap = 1.14.1-3.fc24
