[Bug 530972] Re: [SRU] usbmount in karmic

Attaching debdiff

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: usbmount
  
- Please backport usbmount 0.0.19.1 to Karmic from Lucid. The reason
- behind this backport is because usbmount 0.0.17, which is currently in
- Karmic tries to get the volumen id with /lib/udev/vol_id and it is not
- present anymore. This problem has been fixed and we have the fix in
- lucid. This is also a new upstream release that contains improvements
- and fixes.
+ 1. The reason behind this is usbmount 0.0.17 in Karmic tries to get a
+ volume id using /lib/udev/vol_id, which is not anymore. By backporting
+ this fix, we will ensure to change the use of /lib/udev/vol_id to
+ /sbin/blkid.
+ 
+ 2. The related bug and [1], have been already fixed both in Debian and
+ Ubuntu lucid by uploading new upstream releases. However, in this case
+ we are applying a merge of the patch originally reported in Debian [2].
+ 
+ 3. To reproduce the bug please see [1]. To verify the fix, just install
+ this fix and connect a USB Stick, and verify that it gets mounted, and
+ check the syslog and a message similar to this will appear:
+ 
+ Mar  3 12:43:59 shift usbmount[8903]: executing command: mount -tvfat -osync,noexec,nodev,noatime /dev/sdc /media/usb0
+ Mar  3 12:43:59 shift usbmount[8903]: executing command: run-parts /etc/usbmount/mount.d
+ 
+ I've personally tested the package before and after the fix, and I can
+ confirm that the fix fixes the problem.
