| Subj: Bug#1120045: autofs: /etc/mtab symlink d |
11: org From: sergio.gelato@astro.su.se Package: autofs Version: 5.1.8-2+deb12u2 automount has code (duplicated in various places in daemon/spawn.c) to pass the -n option to mount and umount when /etc/mtab is a symlink to either /proc/mounts or /proc/self/mounts . Despite this, I'm still seeing this in the logs: Unable to update the mtab file, /proc/mounts and /etc/mtab will differ I think the problem is that autofs only checks for absolute symlink targets whereas Debian sets up /etc/mtab as a relative symlink (to .. /proc/self/mounts on all the installations I've checked). --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
