Public bug reported:
Ecryptfs never releases the lower file. That means that no inotify
events are ever issued for the underlying encrypted fs. This in turn
means that if the encrypted directory is on Ubuntu One, changes are not
synced until after a forced rescan or after a reboot.
Commit 332ab16f830f59e7621ae8eb2c353dc135a316f6 by tyhicks adds
reference counting (resulting in a fput of the lower file on final
umount) to the underlying files. This should allow an ecryptfs
filesystem located under Ubuntu One to be properly synced. Could we get
that into natty-proposed?
