Description Tom London 2007-03-12 14:51:19 UTC
Description of problem:
gnome-mount prompts for LUKS passphrases, YEA!!!!

However, if I insert a USB drive with multiple encrypted partitions, I get
multiple passphrase dialog boxes, none of which indicate which partition they
refer to.

Something in this dialog prompt should indicate what partition... no?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-mount-0.5-3.fc7

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2008-04-03 23:39:57 UTC
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported
against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no
longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are
flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer
maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now,
we will automatically close it.

If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or
rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change
the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version
or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.)

Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled
these issues to this point.

The process we're following is outlined here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp

We will be following the process here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this
doesn't happen again.

Comment 2 Tom London 2008-04-03 23:47:46 UTC
This continues in current Rawhide.

Multiple encrypted partitions provide the identical prompt for passwords: they
do not include partition information, only drive information.

Comment 3 Tom London 2008-04-03 23:48:34 UTC
Thought I clicked "I am providing requested..."

Comment 4 Tom London 2008-04-13 18:17:37 UTC
How about this patch for starters?

Apologize if I have the diff backwards.

I've tested this on my system and this appears to add the dev-name for the Luks
partition being mounted.  This is a start.

I'll attach below a screenshot of the new dialog box.

Created attachment 302279 [details]
dialog box with added device file name

This is better......

Comment 6 Tom London 2008-04-13 22:24:32 UTC
This patch also includes the device file name in the title bar:

Comment 7 David Zeuthen 2008-04-13 22:46:38 UTC
I don't think displaying some random device name is very user friendly. Rather,
I think displaying the partition number is a lot better. This is in
volume.partition.number. And remember to check for volume.is_partition==FALSE as
well.

Comment 8 Tom London 2008-04-14 00:05:03 UTC
Thanks for the improvements.

Not sure this is completely good, but....:

I'm sure this could be improved by someone more facile with the g_ and libhal_
functions.

The 'if ()' could be replaced by more complicated expressions in the calls to
g_strdup_printf();  not sure of the coding style here.

[The libhal_ functions are pretty neat.....]

Comment 9 Tom London 2008-04-14 00:08:49 UTC
Uhhh... botched the format in one of the g_strdup_printf calls.  %u->%d.

Corrected patch:

Comment 11 David Zeuthen 2008-04-16 22:28:57 UTC
I committed a slightly more translator friendly patch, see

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-mount/trunk/src/gnome-mount.c?view=log

It seems the diff viewer on svn.g.o is down right now.

Closing as UPSTREAM; I'll make sure this will be in before F9. Thanks.
