Description of problem:
fatsort crash with error

 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fatsort-0.9.8.2-1.fc8

 How reproducible:
fatsort -f /dev/sdb1

 Actual results:
writeClusterChain: Seek error!
sortClusterChain: Failed to write cluster chain!
sortClusterChain: Failed to sort cluster chain!
sort_fs: Failed to sort cluster chain!
main: Failed to sort file system!

 Additional info:
'fsck.vfat /dev/sdb1' passess without any error.
There is no autofs/hald/messagebus.
Device is mounted by fstab line:
LABEL=MP3-1234   /home/mike/usb2  auto
rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noauto,user,uid=mike,gid=mike,umask=0077

When I get fatsort-0.9.8.2.tar.gz source and build it locally fatsort works fine.
Strange it is, because according to fatsort.spec there are no patches nor any
additional options for build.

Without '-f' flag there is additional error (not important for me):
 check_mounted: Unable to get realpath!
 sort_fs: Could not check if filesystem is mounted!
 main: Failed to sort file system!

Can you please run:
rpm --verify fatsort

If the output is empty, maybe it helps when you provide a backtrace:

1) debuginfo-install fatsort
2) # gdb fatsort
3) (gdb) run -f /dev/sdb1
notice crash
4) (gdb) bt
Then post the output here, but before you do this, make sure, that it does not
contain any private information.

I notified upstream about this bug, but I was not able to reproduce it.

On Ubuntu forum someone said that it might be related to locales.

problem "solved", but I don't know about "proper" state, need confirmation from

btw, is there anything we can do about '-f'?

Yeah, the backtrace was actually not a good idea, because fatsort did not really
crash but exited cleanly. I located the bug, the CFLAGS get completely
overwritten when they are specified on the make commandline,
"-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" need to be set. I will push fixed
packages, soon.

About the "-f", I guess this is needed because you do not have an entry for
/dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab, there is only one with the label. Therefore fatsort
cannot check, whether or not the filesytem is mounted. If you want it do beheave
differently, you need to talk to upstream.

Changing 'LABEL=MP3-1234' to '/dev/sdb1' in fstab does not help.

Updated fatsort (fatsort-0.9.8.3):
https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2731
works fine no matter if I have 'LABEL=MP3-1234' or '/dev/sdb1' in fstab.

Please note, that mounted filesystem trigger a proper error.

I will update fatsort soon. If you need a bug report for the realpath isssue,
please open a new bug report, but this one was only about the wrong CFLAGS.
