** Description changed:

  SRU Justification:
- [IMPACT] 
-  * When using quota on systems with XFS on precise/quantal only the root 
quota is reported.
+ [IMPACT]
+  * When using quota on systems with XFS on precise/quantal only the root

+  * This means that users of XFS cannot use repquota, as it does not return 
reliable results.
  
  [TESTCASE]

- [Regression Potential] 
-  * This patch is already part of quota 4.01-1. It would be important to test 
on XFS and non-XFS partitions to see if functionality is as expected.
-  * This bug worked correctly in Lucid, and appears to be a regression in the 
upstream package between Lucid and Precise.

  Description of the problem:
  
  The command 'repquota' is not working properly with an XFS file system
  on 12.04 and later. It only reports root's quota. The same command
  worked well with 10.04, and the other quota commands (xfs_quota) seem to
  work properly as well.
  
  Version affected: 12.04 LTS:
  
  ii quota 4.00-3 implementation of the disk quota system
  ii xfsprogs 3.1.7 Utilities for managing the XFS filesystem
  
  How reproducible is the problem? Always.
  
  Steps to Reproduce:
  
  1. Create a XFS partition.
  2. Create an entry in fstab such as:
  
  /dev/vdb1 /mnt xfs defaults,usrquota,grpquota 1 1
  
  3. Run and compare the output of the following commands on 10.04 LTS ,
  12.04 LTS and 12.10.
  
  $ sudo mount /mnt
  $ sudo mkdir -p /mnt/test
  $ sudo chown $USER:$GROUP /mnt/test
  $ sudo repquota /mnt
  $ sudo xfs_quota -x -c report /mnt
  
  This appears to be a regression.
