Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-mount

I've met this while trying to mount a UFS2 partition with gnome-mount.
To mount an UFS2 partition, the option ufstype=ufs2 is mandatory.
However, when putting it in the option field and trying to mount the volume, it 
reports an error telling that there is an "Invalid mount option when attempting 
to mount the volume."

Mounting from the terminal works perfectly with such a command :
sudo mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=ufs2 /dev/sdc1 /mnt

I'm guessing that this problem is caused because there is a limited list
of allowed mount options and it doesn't include ufstype.
