Package: sshfs Version: 2.2-1 Severity: minor
This is a bug in error reporting, or really a failure to check for a user error. If you run sshfs -o nonempty host:dir mountpoint and mountpoint is a normal file, created via > mountpoint sshf reports success but nothing is mounted on mountpoint. In fact, any access of mountpoint thereafter gives Input/Output errors. $ >foo desk:~$ sshfs localhost:. foo g...@localhost's password: fusermount: mountpoint is not empty fusermount: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option $ sshfs --nonempty localhost:. foo g...@localhost's password: fusermount: mountpoint is not empty fusermount: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option $ $ sshfs -o nonempty localhost:. foo g...@localhost's password: $ ls foo ls: cannot access foo: Input/output error $ ls -ld foo ls: cannot access foo: Input/output error $ cat foo cat: foo: Input/output error $ -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages sshfs depends on: ii fuse-utils 2.7.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace (utilities ii libc6 2.9-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfuse2 2.7.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace library ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GLib library of C routines ii openssh-client 1:5.1p1-5+b1 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh sshfs recommends no packages. sshfs suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
