The user reports that the persistent name changes when switching from

Hmmm, downgrading libdevmapper1.02.1 and rebooting didn't fix it. Nor
did downgrading module-init-tools from 3.10-2 to 3.10-1. So I'm not sure
what package is at fault. Please reassign if you know.
Odd, there they are
by-id# ls -aLlog
brw-rw---- 1 3, 0 Aug 26 00:42 ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR
brw-rw---- 1 3, 1 Aug 26 00:42 ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part1
brw-rw---- 1 3, 3 Aug 26 00:42 ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part3...
But with my fstab,
by-id# mount -a
mount: special device /dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part6 does not exist
mount: special device /dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part7 does not exist...
This happens on both my Thinkpad and my desktop.
Wait, no wonder, comparing the strings reveals:
ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part3
ata-FUJITSU_MHT2040AT_NN4GT531H3AR-part3
How silly this name being repeated!
One might have thought it is related to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=515598
but that is different.
I hope someone will reassign this bug to where it belongs. Thanks.
