incorrect pie-chart drawn at top level

[Marius Gedminas]

See the attached screenshot: 139 GB out of 158 GB of my / is taken up by my /home, but Baobab draws the pie chart showing the 4 GB /dev as taking up 99.999% of the space.

The fill-up meters on the left show the same problem.

I have a hunch that Baobab is paying attention to the number of files rather than their size. It founds /proc mounted on /dev/.bootchart/proc and counds all the virtual files in it.

Here's a screenshot that shows 'proc' being mounted inside /dev/.bootchart.

Also it makes it quite obvious my guess about the number of items was wrong: /home has 20x the number of items of /dev/.bootchart/proc.

I was not able to reproduce this, but since upstream has already fixed this I have triaged it for the time being.

[Marius Gedminas (mgedmin)]

Reproduction probably involves

1) having little free disk space
2) having an ecryptfs mount with more bytes used than the free space
3) running baobab with '/' as the sole command-line argument

Anyway the upstream fix is essentially "skip all ecryptfs mounts also when command-line arguments were provided to baobab".
