With the change to implement /run in squeezy, we can now move mtab off of /etc.
Right now, the system is using /etc/mtab -> /proc/mounts. I have found a number of tools (not all debian based) that do fopen("/etc/mtab", "r+") and disregard /etc/mtab if it cannot be opened as a way of verifying the contents are valid. Consequence is this is now risking data corruption. I thought I had a working patch, but it wasn't working yet. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
