[Bug 775239] [NEW] loop device over samba breaks filesystem

[dejot]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

I am using a loop device to rsync my home directory via samba to avoid
problems with name/permissions incompatibility (for details see e.g.
http://users.softlab.ece.ntua.gr/~ttsiod/backup.html). A recent samba
install however seems to break the loop device. fsck yields: "BackupFile
was not cleanly unmounted, check forced." as soon as a file is
added/deleted and mount/rsync/umount is conducted.
