Sorry, let me correct myself. It's been fixed from lucid-updates all the way up
to oneiric, and I have not experienced this ever since the fix landed in
lucid-updates. That said, I had no part in the creation of the patch that fixed
this bug, and don't have a clear idea on what's going wrong where. And I don't
use Linux Mint, so I have no idea what's going wrong there either.

The status of the bug is correct -- it's fixed in mountall on Ubuntu, and
mountall in Lucid (via lucid-updates). If it's still broken in Linux Mint, then
open a task there and set it to the appropriate status. There is no reason to
demand that the "Fix released" status in Ubuntu be changed to "Won't Fix" when
it clearly has been fixed over here.

So to sum it all up in a nutshell, it's all fixed on Ubuntu, but not fixed on
Linux Mint, so obviously something went wrong somewhere in porting the fix from
Ubuntu to Mint, so please stop blaming Canonical or Ubuntu for not paying
attention to this bug report. If you need someone to badger about this bug
occurring in Mint, find a Mint developer.
