Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Hello,
pmount in stable suffers from a rather painful bug: it is useless
with all kernels with deprecated sysfs features disabled (see
#528404). This does not affect (yet) users of the stock kernel
(2.6.26), but affects any user that compiles their own more recent
kernels, and it will probably affect lenny-and-a-half too.
A fix has been uploaded to squeeeze not long after lenny's release,
and it has been rather extensively tested; in particular, no security
flaws were found. An additional benefit is that it drops a dependency
on libsysfs.
Would that be a suitable candidate for an upload to spu ?
Many thanks,
Vincent
