Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pmount
pmount on a USB drive gave: "Error: device /dev/sdb is not removable",
but "cat /sys/block/sdb/removable" yielded 1. Adding /dev/sdb to
/etc/pmount.allow fixed the problem, but man pmount says that
/sys/block/*/removable being OR being listed in /etc/pmount.allow is
enough to indicate removability.
apt-cache policy pmount:
