ecryptfs-utils "ecryptfs-umount-private" don't work

[syscon-hh]

Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

Intrepid Ibex - last updated
Kernel 2.6.27-7-generic
Gnome-Desktop 2.24

Using the command "ecryptfs-umount-private" in an user-terminal nothing will change.
It's seeming to me a failure occures inside /usr/bin/ecryptfs-umount-private at these two lines

       count=`who | grep "^$username " | wc -l`
       if [ $count -le 1 ]; then

If I added a >!< as follows, the command is still working well

       count=`who | grep "^$username " | wc -l`
       if [ ! $count -le 1 ]; then

due to >$count< is always >2< in a single user System, but I'm not so experienced to make the decission, what has to be rewritten.

The command "ecryptfs-mount-private" works fine!!

What version of ecryptfs-utils are you using? That functionality is
deprecated and fixed in a new version.

dpkg -l | grep ecryptfs-utils

Sorry - I just now opened my >intrepred-proposed< packages, so it's OK!

root@IBEX-HOME:/home/laura# dpkg -l | grep ecryptfs-utils
ii ecryptfs-utils 53-1ubuntu13 ecryptfs cryptographic filesystem (utilities
root@IBEX-HOME:/home/laura#

Has been reduced to -> /sbin/umount.ecryptfs_private

But why did you reduce it - due to a multiuser-system I guess you need the >whoiam-funktion<

I moved much more robust instance counting code into
mount.ecryptfs_private and umount.ecryptfs_private themselves. They
keep track of successful and unsuccessful mounts in a tempfile.

The 'whoami' code was flimsy and buggy, and never quite worked
correctly. And with a better built-in counter, completely
unnecessary. It should have been removed weeks ago, but I forgot.

Thanks for the report, closing.
