Public bug reported: Binary package hint: samba
I am using a loop device to rsync my home directory via samba to avoid problems with name/permissions incompatibility (for details see e.g. http://users.softlab.ece.ntua.gr/~ttsiod/backup.html). A recent samba install however seems to break the loop device. fsck yields: "BackupFile was not cleanly unmounted, check forced." as soon as a file is added/deleted and mount/rsync/umount is conducted.
