Package: xfsprogs Version: 3.1.7+b1 Severity: important File: /usr/sbin/xfs_freeze Dear Maintainer, When xfs_freeze -f /some/path is executed and /some/path does not contain a mounted file system the under lying (in my case root) file system was frozen, this then required travelling to the site to power cycle the machine. The mount point normally hosted a removable drive, but it had been ejected. Please have xfs_freeze return an error if the mountpoint argument does not contain a mounted file system. The documentation implies that the argument must be a mount point, but _any_ path provided as an argument will freeze the parent file system. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xfsprogs depends on: ii libblkid1 2.20.1-5.1 ii libc6 2.13-33 ii libreadline5 5.2-11 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.1 xfsprogs recommends no packages.
