[Bug 1012081] Re: util-linux needs updating to 2.21+

[Xavier Guillot]

util-linux is still not upgraded to version 2.21 both in current Ubuntu Raring 13.04 and Debian Sid.
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=util-linux&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

It makes me also affected by bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-
utility/+bug/1011257

when I try to connect and mount an external eSATA hard drive with ext4
partition, it's not possible to access the media and I get the following
error:

Error mounting /dev/sdd1 at /media/valeryan24/Verbatim: Command-line `mount -t "ext4" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sdd1" "/media/valeryan24/Verbatim"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdd1,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

I can mount USB key or hard drive but not the eSATA one for my backups.

Title:
  util-linux needs updating to 2.21+

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “util-linux” package in Debian:
  New

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.
