Description: Automatically mount and unmount removable media
 With supermount, you can change the disk in the drive whenever you want
 (with the obvious exception that you shouldn't do it when the filesystem
 is actively in use). You don't need to "cd" out of the directory first,
 and you don't need to tell the kernel what you're doing --- supermount
 will detect the media change automatically.
 .
 Supermount will automatically detect whether the media you are mounting
 is read-write or readonly, and if you mount a write-protected disk, then
 the subfs will be mounted as a readonly filesystem.
 .
 Supermount detects when you have finished activity on the subfs, and will
 flush all buffers to the disk before completing the operation. So, if you
 copy a file onto a supermounted floppy disk, the data will all be written
 to disk before the "cp" command finishes. When the command does complete,
 it will be safe to remove the disk.
 .
 It can be applied to the following Linux kernel sources:
 2.4.20, 2.4.21, 2.4.22, 2.4.23, 2.4.24

I believe that supermount-ng is an important feature that should be in Debian.

I'm willing to work in a team with anyone interested in this package.

Mmmh, lots of new kernels to test.

I'm ok to team up for this package. Are you still interested ?

I already have a working patch against the debian 2.4.27 kernel source.

Hello,

Maximiliano, Xavier, does either one of you still intend to adopt
kernel-patch-2.4-supermount-ng?  (This is just a ping, I'm not
interested in adopting it myself.)

Thanks,

Yes. A new package version is already in our sponsor's hands and we're
waiting for an upload.

I haven't heard back from you, so I'm assuming you're no longer
interested.  If you are, feel free to retitle the bug again.

I think we should remove kernel-patch-2.4-supermount-ng.

  * Orphaned for 17 months.
  * Doesn't apply to any of the kernels currently in sid (though with
    minor changes it could apply to kernel-source-2.4.27).
  * popcon: 18 installs, 0 votes.

Thanks,

Matej

Subject: Bug#298998: fixed

Date: Sat, 19 Aug 2006 18:39:47 -0700

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

kernel-patch-2.4-supermount-ng |   1.2.11-1 | source, all

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.

Packages are never removed from testing by hand.  Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 298998@bugs.debian.org.

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
ftpmaster@debian.org.
