Oops - sorry I didn't check thoroughly enough.

One note on the proposed fix - I think that the argument that fsck will
create /lost+found is possibly a bit flawed - the point of having a
large enough pre-created directory is to avoid any block allocations
during fsck, to reduce the risk of further corrupting the filesystem
when the free list is mangled.

This bug was already reported (in bug reports #662605 and #660879) and
has been fixed in the 3.0pl1-123 version  (in unstable now) by
removing the standard cron task file.

I'm merging this bug report with the previous bug reports (and thus
closing this one too)

Regards

Bug#679500: cron: test for missing lost+found should ignore bind mounts

[Toby Speight]

Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-121
Severity: normal
File: /etc/cron.daily/standard

Dear Maintainer,

Every day, I receive an email warning me about missing lost+found
directories.  But the filesystems listed are merely bind mounts of
sub-trees of other filesystems which do in fact have lost+found.  I
think that the test script should filter out bind mounts before
checking for /lost+found.
