@Jari: Just tested it myself, I added (user="USERNAME") to my pam_mount.xml and it works now.

Status in User mounts: New Status in sudo package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have sudo 1.8.3p1-1ubuntu3.1 from precise-proposed and I use pam_mount for mounting encrypted partitions at login. (LVM partitions, if that matters.) 'sudoedit' command triggers pam_mount to enquire the password of the encrypted partition, trying to mount it and later to umount it. Mounting and umounting fails, because the encrypted partition is already mounted, unlocked and busy. The edited file is not changed rendering sudoedit useless. $ sudoedit test reenter password for pam_mount: pam_mount(mount.c:69): Messages from underlying mount program: pam_mount(mount.c:73): crypt_activate_by_passphrase: File exists pam_mount(pam_mount.c:521): mount of /dev/myvolumehere/mypartitionhere failed pam_mount(mount.c:69): umount messages: pam_mount(mount.c:73): umount: /mnt/mymountedpartition: device is busy. pam_mount(mount.c:73): (In some cases useful info about processes that use pam_mount(mount.c:73): the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1)) pam_mount(mount.c:73): umount /mnt/mymountedpartition failed with run_sync status 1 pam_mount(mount.c:73): umount: /mnt/mymountedpartition: device is busy. pam_mount(mount.c:73): (In some cases useful info about processes that use pam_mount(mount.c:73): the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1)) pam_mount(mount.c:73): umount /mnt/mymountedpartition failed with run_sync status 1 pam_mount(mount.c:752): unmount of /dev/myvolumehere/mypartitionhere failed If I edit the file "test", the tmp file "/var/tmp/test.XXN2W9z4" gets updated, but after exiting sudoedit, the actual file is not changed. The tmp file is removed after exiting. sudo (version 1.8.3p1-1ubuntu3.1) does not trigger this behavior, just sudoedit. If I clear the sudo timestamp: $ sudo -k $ sudoedit test [sudo] password for myusername: pam_mount(mount.c:69): Messages from underlying mount program: [...the same errors...] If I donwgrade to version sudo=1.8.3p1-1ubuntu3, the sudoedit fails similarly, but appended with the known bug 927828: shell:~$ sudoedit test reenter password for pam_mount: pam_mount(mount.c:69): Messages from underlying mount program: pam_mount(mount.c:73): crypt_activate_by_passphrase: File exists pam_mount(pam_mount.c:521): mount of /dev/myvolumehere/mypartitionhere failed sudoedit: pam_mount.c:417: modify_pm_count: Assertion `user != ((void *)0)' failed. Aborted shell:~$ ls test ls: cannot access test: No such file or directory So sudoedit was unusable also with the old version.
