Title:
  multiple entries in fstab with same mount-point

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mountall

  Release: 9.10
  Package-Version: 1.0, 1.0.1

  Multiple entries in fstab with the same mount-point get not mounted as
  expected. (see mount-point '/home' in attached fstab for example)

  Probably it doesn't make very much sense to mount different sources with different options to the same mount-point but in case of dazukofs (which is used by avira antivir) the following is necessary
  #> mount -t dazukofs /home /home
  after the real partitions as been mounted to '/home' to tell the on-access-scanner to include '/home'

  But this cannot be done automatically during boot by putting an according line to /etc/fstab since mountall just does a
  'mount -a -t dazukofs -o defaults /home /home', but the real partition doesn't ever get mounted.

  By invoking a manual 'mount -a' both fstab-lines get interpreted as
  expected.
