As described in the URL, some people we do have /media as a symlink instead of being a real directory. Although it can mount well the devices, the problem comes when unmounting them: pumount /media/backup Error: mount point /var/media/backup is not below /media/ In that bug there is also a patch that I'll attach here. It just needs to be added in " src_unpack() " of current pmount-0.9.13.ebuild ebuild. Thanks in advance :)
Created attachment 102608 [details, diff] pmount-follow-symlinks.patch The patch I think that should be added to pmount-0.9.13.ebuild Thanks in advance :)
While I will consider this patch, I do believe there are possible security implications. What the above linked bug on Debian proposes would be your best bet. To always make sound that /var/media is bound to /media if you did something similar.
Get this accepted upstream and we will apply it (It is an ubuntu dev so it shouldn't be too hard ;) )
