Hi guys,
A new util-linux is in [testing].
Changes:
* add to patches from upstream, in particular fixing https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26059 and http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=737091.
* enable libmount
With libmount we get support for /etc/mtab being both a regular file and a symlink to /proc/self/mountinfo. The latter is "the future", but we won't force that as not all mount helpers (such as cifs, fuse, ntfs and nfs) have been ported yet. If you don't use any of the unported mount helpers, you can delete /etc/mtab and make it a symlink manually. I guess you want to say /proc/self/mounts ;)
I'd especially appreciate signoffs from people using the unported helpers, and especially with the "user" mount option, or anything else non-standard. There was a problem with this when we tried libmount with util-linux 2.19.1, but I (and Dave) could not reproduce this with 2.20.
Please test and signoff.
Cheers,
Tom
