Well, not relevant so long as it gets done soon, but this bug has been open for a month, and I need a solution sooner rather than later. Truthfully, I am in the middle of setting up a Debian box right now because I don't see am imminent solution for this.

[Bug 126379] Re: /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto
My problem is very similar to chris' above. I rely on luks encrypted hard drives for regular backups to hard drives. The script mounts and unmounts the encrypted drive on demand. I was going to move the service from a Debian Etch machine to a machine running Ubuntu, but this is a real show stopper for me since unmounting properly seems to be impossible. Colin, can you go into more detail about your work around? I have never messed with udebs before, and I am not sure where to start. -- /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Chris: to apply the same workaround to your system, edit /etc/udev/rules.d/65-dmsetup.rules and follow the directions in the comment beginning this is temporary. -- /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 126379] Re: /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto
Hi Colin: Thanks. I suspect that these are rules from Gusty? It would seem that this bug is also in Feisty, and the dmsetup.rules under feisty don't have any obvious section to change. I will have a poke around Gusty and see if I can't puzzle it out.

[Bug 126379] Re: /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto
The problem you're encountering in Feisty is not this bug; it's a difficult systemic problem in the process of being fixed in Gutsy (I believe). It's probably rather hard to backport the fixes. -- /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 126379] Re: /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto
This is considerably more serious for me than just encrypted swap/tmpfs. It seriously compromises the security of my pam-mounted, luks-encrypted, lvm home partitions. When a user logs in, everything mounts correctly. The encrypted volume is decrypted in /dev/mapper, and is also symlinked to, e.g., /dev/dm-7. /dev/dm-7 mounts as, e.g., /home/chris. At logout, pam_mount calls umount.crypt to unmount the home partition and close the encrypted luks volume. The home partition umounts successfully, but umount.crypt fails to close the luks volume with the error: Command failed: dm_task_set_name: Device /dev/dm-7 not found Yet /dev/dm-7 certainly exists. My data is left unencrypted in /dev/mapper/_dev_mapper_chris symlinked to /dev/dm-7. This is obviously bad from a security standpoint if multiple users share a machine. Furthermore, if I log out, and then attempt to log in again, pam_mount is unable to initialize the luks volume, because it was never closed during the log out. So I have go back to a console, log in as another user, and manually close the luks volume from the previous session before I can log in again. Argh! Colin, can you explain your workaround a little more thoroughly? How do you turn the symlinks off in the libdevmapper udeb? That sounds a bit, uh, complicated. Any other workarounds, or ETA for a fix in the gutsy repos? -- /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

FWIW I've worked around this for d-i by turning these symlinks off in the libdevmapper udeb, but I'm leaving the bug open since things in the normal system might be affected too. -- /dev/mapper/* - /dev/dm-* symlink scheme breaks partman-crypto https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
