[Bug 1960457] Re: Please remove lupin from the archive

After the demise of lupin-casper, the port of its functions into casper
itself is incomplete...

In casper/scripts/casper-bottom/05mountpoints the following is needed at
the end (before log_end_msg)...

if grep -q '^[^ ]* /isodevice ' /proc/mounts; then
        mkdir -p /root/isodevice
        mount -n -o move /isodevice /root/isodevice
fi

(This was present in the now extinct package lupin-casper in
lupin-0.57build1/casper/scripts/casper-bottom/05mountpoints_lupin)

The problem without these lines of code is that the partition remains
mounted but the mount point is lost, it can not be unmounted, it locks
the partition (avoiding changes in the disk when toram option is used),
and also it prevents from accessing to files in that partition as the
previous comment stated.

I hope that these four lines of code can be added to fix the problem.

Title:
  Please remove lupin from the archive

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lupin package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  lupin is an Ubuntu native package that was used to facilitate WUBI
  installs of Ubuntu. However, WUBI is no longer a product Canonical
  produces or supports and subsequently we don't need to be keeping
  lupin around. Nothing depends on the source package or its binaries.

  [  1:30PM 11986 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]
   $ reverse-depends -r jammy src:lupin
  [  1:30PM 11987 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]
   $ reverse-depends -r focal src:lupin
  [  3:22PM 11993 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]

  Having said that livecd-rootfs does try and install lupin-casper when
  building Ubuntu images but that is cruft but may need to be removed
  from livecd-rootfs before the package is removed.
