[Bug 1216947] Re: cron.daily/standard reports /tmp/lost+found missing

[Robie Basak]

Sorry, wrong changelog entry. The one I meant was:

  * debian/cron.default, debian/standard.daily, debian/rules: Remove
    the lost+found check as this is no longer required and causes
    issues with some filesystems (e.g. bind mounts, locally mounted USB
    drives). Additionally, in some filesystems the directory
    will be generated when required. (Closes: #620164, #658743, #662605,
    #660879, #579640, #473711)

Title:
  cron.daily/standard reports /tmp/lost+found missing

Status in “cron” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If /tmp is a filesystem, /tmp/lost+found will be removed following
  each reboot.  This causes cron.daily/standard to report
  /tmp/lost+found is missing.

  Reporting as a bug because, apart from mounting /tmp as a filesystem
  in /etc/fstab, everything is left at default.

  I would expect default behaviour to be either:

  1. /etc/rcS does not delete lost+found if /tmp is a filesystem; or
  2. cron.daily/standard does not report missing lost+found for a filesystem mounted to /tmp

  This occurs on 3.0pl1-120ubuntu4.
