further investigation: i uploaded -4 with a change to simply redirect input from /dev/null, rather than echoing 'blockdev -v' into the process. the result was pretty much the exact same: we don't see the input show up, and we get a time out. of course, attempting to reproduce this locally leads to

I see that growlight's autopkgtests are disabled in testing right now due to the timeout. Can we please remove that, so I can try something? I noticed just now in the growlight testing logs that we have output of the form e.g.: xvda14 -> ../../devices/vbd-51712/block/xvda/xvda14 Partitio

well, as i noted above, this use case certainly isn't the standard way growlight will be used (although it's a valid one, and one worth fixing -- this was a valuable exercise, and i appreciate autopkgtests spotting this regression!). so it's not very important to users...but at the same time, it wa
