Package: usbmount
Followup-For: Bug #658028
This is indeed a very valid concern (not that I have been affected
personally). Quite a few scripts in /lib/udev/rules.d seem to be doing
things that might take a while or even hang. I'm surprised, honestly.
In any case, I imagine usbmount's udev compliance could be trivially
ensured: make 'usbmount' a wrapper that calls, say, usbmount.real proper
with all the banalities, insecurities, hopes and despair that comes with
it.
I created a branch of the alioth upstream sources that implements
precisely this change,
https://github.com/hfuchs/usbmount/tree/hfuchs.658028
and also renames usbmount.rules -> 90-usbmount.rules because it seemed
proper (all of the other rule scripts start with some ordering number,
only usbmount stood out :).
How about it?
