[Bug 1012081] Re: util-linux needs updating to 2.24.1

[Phillip Susi]

I had already converted the package to 3.0 ( quilt ) format, and just
disregarded any remaining patches that have not been merged upstream
since it is insanely difficult to extract them from the current git repo
and got it working and waiting for a few weeks for Lamont to upload it
to Debian.  I spoke with infinity on irc the other day who said he would
make the time to review the full git repo and convert any needed patches
into quilt format and get this done.

Title:
  util-linux needs updating to 2.24.1

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “util-linux” source package in Raring:

Status in “util-linux” package in Debian:

Bug description:
  Applications in the default desktop - specifically gnome-disk-utility
  - depend on behaviour only introduced in util-linux 2.21+.
  Specifically if you select "Show in user interface" in mount options,
  it adds the mount option "x-gvfs-show" to the mount options in
  /etc/fstab. Mounting of this mount point then fails because the option
  is unrecognised.
