Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils
The IN_DELETE_SELF mask for inotify_add_watch indicates that an event
should be emitted when the watched path is deleted. The attached
program uses this feature successfully on a "normal" filesystem (eg
ext3). When run in an ecryptfs mount however, the notification never
appears and the program hangs indefinitely.
Tested using a brand new ecryptfs mount, created using:
$ mkdir ecryptfs-source
$ mkdir ecryptfs-dest
$ sudo mount -t ecryptfs ecrypt-source/ ecrypt-dest/
[ select defaults ]
Then run the program with ecrypt-dest as the working directory.
