Package: pmount
Version: 0.9.99-alpha-1
Severity: normal
brian@jessie:~ pmount debian-8.0.0-i386-DVD-1.iso
Failed to open file '/home/brian/debian-8.0.0-i386-DVD-1.iso for reading: Value too large for defined data type
Failed to setup loop device for debian-8.0.0-i386-DVD-1.iso, aborting
The file is about 4 GiB in size.
Not the same software, but a similar problem was tackled here:
https://github.com/IgnorantGuru/udevil/issues/1
udevil does mount this file.
Regards,
Brian.
