Package: hal Version: 0.5.13-3 Severity: normal [ u...@joshua::/media ] $ umount ./disk /sbin/umount.hal: ./disk is not recognized by hal [ u...@joshua::/media ] $ umount /media/disk [ u...@joshua::/media ] $
As you can see, relative path causes error, absolute path works. This behavior is unexpected, given that umount normally works just fine with relative paths: joshua:/mnt# mount /dev/sda1 ./tmp joshua:/mnt# umount ./tmp joshua:/mnt# joshua:/media# umount ./disk joshua:/media# I suspect the fix would be a oneliner involving a call to realpath(3). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (1100, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages hal depends on: ii acl 2.2.48-1 Access control list utilities ii adduser 3.111 add and remove users and groups ii consolekit 0.3.1-1 framework for defining and trackin ii dbus 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii hal-info 20090716-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - fdi f ii libblkid1 2.16.1-4 block device id library ii libc6 2.9-25 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.82-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 2.0.1-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.0-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libhal-storage1 0.5.13-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.13-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libpolkit2 0.9-4 library for accessing PolicyKit ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-13 userspace USB programming library ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii mount 2.16.1-4 Tools for mounting and manipulatin ii pciutils 1:3.1.4-2 Linux PCI Utilities ii policykit 0.9-4 framework for managing administrat ii udev 146-5 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii usbutils 0.86-2 Linux USB utilities Versions of packages hal recommends: ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-6 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer ii pm-utils 1.2.5-4 utilities and scripts for power ma Versions of packages hal suggests: pn gnome-device-manager <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
