Package: fusioninventory-agent
Version: 2.2.3-2~bpo60+2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.7
Whene running fusioninventory-agent it calls /sbin/blkid if installed, which
cause an update of /etc/blkid.tab
(maybe this bug should filed against package containing blkid ?)
As part of fusioninventory-agent blkid could be called with a specific cache
file.
Besides writing file in /etc which should have configuration files, it triggers
false-positives for /etc watching tools (we are using metche)
