That's an interesting point. Btw, settrans --recursive is currently implemented like this, I'll patch this also to use the translator list. > No, just the active ones. Actually the code also tracks passive translators being set, but of course we don't know anything about any previously set passive translators. Richard and me agreed that for most purposes one needs an mtab file for (e.g. fsck) it is also interesting to know whether a passive translator is set and what device it would use because any user could trigger the translator start at any time.
