Package: partconf
Version: 1.19
Severity: wishlist
The "defaults" word in /etc/fstab exist so that one has something to write
as a 4th field, but it's really useless if there are more options. In such
cases it may be removed safely.
In most cases, removing this extra word makes fstab more readable, as
fields 5 and 6 are closer to the same fields in previous and next lines.
Before:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
After:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
Suggested patch:
