Public bug reported: Binary package hint: util-linux
libblkid isn't careful about avoiding integer overflows. If parts of the HFS catalog file have block offsets of more than UINT32_MAX, blkid will report no label, when a label does in fact exist. If such partitions are listed in fstab by LABEL, they will mysteriously not mount. This has been fixed upstream: http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-linux /util-linux.git;a=commit;h=7e256156f4a8650f0e5c5aaea9cf93d9bf3e1294 . Upgrading to util-linux 2.19 or higher would fix this bug. ** Affects: util-linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789928 Title: blkid: HFS+ label can't be found when block offsets exceed UINT32_MAX -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
