Package: mount
Version: 2.16.2-0
Severity: critical
Tags: squeeze
Justification: breaks the whole system

I inserted a cdrom into the cdrom drive. Debian Squeeze detected that
and started mount automatically. It couldn't mount the disk (possibly
the drive or the disk is faulty). But instead of giving up cleanly,
mount just hung in an unkillable state (kill -9 by root did not kill it).
It was then impossible to shutdown the system, I guess because shutdown
tries to kill all processes and couldn't kill mount.
The only way to shutdown or restart the system was by killing the power!
This is not acceptable.
