Package: smbfs Version: 3.0.21c-1 Severity: normal It seems from comments in e.g. bugs 291062 and 256637 that mounting shares using smbfs is no longer expected to work correctly, and that known bugs in smbfs won't be fixed. Given that, would it be possible for mount.smbfs to print a warning to that effect? I recently had a 262G backup to a samba share corrupted by smbfs bugs, and I had never heard before that happened that smbfs wasn't supposed to work correctly.
