Bug#717778: checkinstall: mkdir -p fails (fstrans broken again?)

Package: checkinstall

It appears that the root of this issue may be in instw_setpathrel
Specifically, the 'stat' command that is used to get the length of a symlink 
should
be 'lstat' instead.

Here is a 1 line-patch that addressed the issue for me:

Bug#375160: libpam-encfs: does not mount user driver when logging in through ssh

[Geoffrey Hausheer]

Package: libpam-encfs

Version: 0.1.3-1

Severity: normal



I have configured libpam-encfs to mount $HOME on user login, and it works fine 

when loggin in through the console or su.  however, the mount does not happen 

when logging in via ssh.



I don't know if this is an inherent limitation, a misconfiguration on my 

part, or a bug somewhere.



/etc/security/pam_encfs.conf is default with the exception of the last line:

-   /home/.enc  -   -v  
allow_root



/etc/pam.d/common-auth:

authsufficient  pam_encfs.so

authrequiredpam_unix.so nullok_secure use_first_pass



I'm not sure which sshd_config options would be relevant, but the only changes 

I've made there are to set 'AllowUsers' and disable 'PermitRootLogin'



I do not have libpam-ssh installed if that is relevant



ssh is:

1:3.8.1p1-8.sarge.4
