[Bug 175527] Re: umount.cifs doesn't remove entry from /etc/mtab

[P.Constantine]

Let's see, strace on umount gives us this:

2969  fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=754, ...}) = 0
2969  mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb775f000
2969  read(3, "/dev/sda1 / ext3 rw,errors=remou"..., 4096) = 754
2969  read(3, "", 4096)                 = 0
2969  close(3)                          = 0
2969  munmap(0xb775f000, 4096)          = 0
2969  stat64("/sbin/umount.cifs", 0xbfdaeb60) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
2969  oldumount("/media/public"  <<<<--- it hangs here!

Let's see:

$ dpkg --search `which mount.cifs`
cifs-utils: /sbin/mount.cifs

$ # dpkg -L cifs-utils

As you can see 'umount.cifs' is indeed nowhere to be found.
