Description Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2011-07-06 12:05:52 UTC 
If I run fuser on a mount point (not used but mounted) then "fuser /path/to/foo" exists with 1 which is true while "fuser -s ..." exists with 0 which isn't true.

Tested with psmisc-22.12 and 22.13.

/chroot/dns is a mount point
# fuser -v /chroot/dns/
                     USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND
/chroot/dns/:        root     kernel mount /chroot/dns

So nothing uses it and the "1" by "fuser ..." is true, the "0" by "fuser -s ..." isn't.

So you'll get false-positives if you use "fuser -s" in your scripts or whatever else.

How is 22.15?

Seems to be fixed in 22.15.
