Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: devicekit-disks

Since the move to DeviceKit for karmic, my removable VFAT-formatted
disks are being mounted with shortnames=lower.  This breaks e.g. rsync:
if a file called "FOO" is created, it will actually appear named "foo".
Past bugs -- e.g. bug 15525 and bug 76200, amongst others -- concluded
that shortnames=winnt (or perhaps shortnames=mixed) was the correct
setting, and this was indeed the case in jaunty.

shortnames=lower appears to be set in devicekit-disks's src/devkit-
disks-device.c.

** Affects: devicekit-disks (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Regression: vfat disks mounted with incorrect shortnames setting
+ Regression: vfat disks mounted with incorrect shortname setting
