Package: eject
Version: 2.1.4-1
Severity: normal
When eject is run by a normal user on a USB mass storage device (as,
for example, gnome-volume-manager when unmounting a USB-connected
iPod) it fails due to the device being opened O_RDONLY rather than O_RDWR:
open("/dev/sdb", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 3
write(1, "eject: trying to eject `/dev/sdb"..., 54) = 54
ioctl(3, SG_GET_VERSION_NUM, 0xbfa0d790) = 0
ioctl(3, SG_IO, 0xbfa0d704) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
write(1, "eject: SCSI eject failed\n", 25) = 25
If I change the option O_RDONLY to O_RDRW in OpenDevice() then this
works as expected (although obviously that's not a sensible patch in
general, so I haven't bothered to attach it.)
many thanks,
mark
