Hello pmount users, I have the intent of taking care of upstream pmount. My code can be found here:
https://github.com/MisterDA/pmount I have spend the last few days gathering patches from around. I’ve found: - the Debian Bug report logs; - patches in distros from Debian and Arch Linux; - two repositories. I’ve integrated the patches as well as I could, while respecting the authors, contributors, and the date of the patch. Then, I’ve spun up my compilers and static analyzers and overhauled the pmount code. I haven't changed much of the user interface; I’ve mostly made internal rewrites. Here is a condensed ChangeLog to this day: The user-visible changes include: - support btrfs, nilfs2, f2fs, exfat (via fuse), ntfs. - fix Bash completion - add --utc option - support tz=UTC - add --selinux-context option to specify a SELinux context - remove pmount-hal, as HAL is deprecated - fix UTF-8 detection - switch from Autotools to Meson+Ninja build system Internally, some notable changes include: - switch from the realpath(3) custom implementation to libc - remove occurrences of PATH_MAX to favor allocations on heap and remove path length limitation - fix compilation errors and warning, fix static analysis reports - reformat of the code for readability and consistency There are also branches keeping history of patches that I did not merge (yet?). I’ll tag a release in a few days (weeks?) to let the time for people to comment, then my intent is to have this new version pushed to distros. I have been unable to find development history prior to 0.5.1. If you have it, I’d be interested for archival purposes. Best regards, -- Antonin Décimo
