** Changed in: util-linux (Ubuntu Utopic)
Status: Confirmed => In Progress
** Description changed:
[Impact]
Due to a upstream bug blkid is unable to detect exfat partitions. This
breaks proper detection and automount of exfat formatted partitions
(e.g. SD cards or USB sticks) in Ubuntu 14.10.
[Test Case]
Insert an exfat formatted SD Card (card is neither detected nor automounted)
or
run as root: blkid [partition]
+ Without the fix:
+ sudo blkid -p /dev/sde1
+ /dev/sde1: ambivalent result (probably more filesystems on the device, use
wipefs(8) to see more details)
+
+ With the fix applied:
+ sudo blkid -p /dev/sde1
+ /dev/sde1: UUID="BE12-8543" VERSION="1.0" TYPE="exfat" USAGE="filesystem"
PTTYPE="dos" PART_ENTRY_SCHEME="dos" PART_ENTRY_TYPE="0x7"
PART_ENTRY_FLAGS="0x80" PART_ENTRY_NUMBER="1" PART_ENTRY_OFFSET="32768"
PART_ENTRY_SIZE="124702720" PART_ENTRY_DISK="8:64"
+
[Regression Potential]
None known, the bugfix is simple and part of already released upstream
stable release (2.25.2).
