Their explanation is attached below along with your original report. If this explanation is unsatisfactory and you have not received a better one in a separate message then please contact martin f krafft madd...@debian.org by replying to this email. Scanning unknown block devices can have ugly side effects, e.g. when using drbd. On the standby the partition looks idle, but it is not. Would it be possible to provide a way to suppress the unwanted scan at install/reconfigure time? Please reopen; this issue is still unresolved.

PS: Hopefully the bpo60 doesn't matter? AFAICS the program logic is the same for the version in Wheezy. Please close if you think this bug affects Squeeze only. Please mail if I can help to track this problem down. Harri -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I haven't looked yet (sorry ENOTIME right now), but I _think_ I fixed this for wheezy. Current bpo60 is a bit behind current wheezy, I need to update it.
