Description of problem: 'gnome-mount' is pretty useless for users who do not look at its code. There is no feedback on errors: | [ensc@kosh ~]$ gnome-mount /dev/sdc1 /media/usbdisk | gnome-mount 0.4 | [ensc@kosh ~]$ Only the error code shows that there is going something wrong. The '--help' message is not very helpful for finding out how to use the program. It states things like: | Usage: | gnome-mount [OPTION...] - GNOME mount | ... | -h, --hal-udi Mount by HAL UDI | -d, --device Mount by device file It does not tell how to specify devices or mount points. Do I need to set environment variables? 'man gnome-mount' gives an error message only and the README does not help neither. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-mount-0.4-5
This is also a big gripe for me. We should perhaps report this upstream!?
RH seems to be upstream. At least 'rpm -qi gnome-mount' does not tell another upstream project URL.
Enrico, that must be a bug in gnome-mount's SPEC file then. ;-) gnome-mount is truely a part of the GNOME project. Reporting upstream is done at http:// bugzilla.gnome.org/ . I actually tripped upon RH bugzilla bug #195863, added my info there and also added it to an upstream bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ show_bug.cgi?id=340113. It was actually fixed there after this "ping" (yesterday). If the gnome-mount packager at Fedora is not acting (definitely has better things to do than our feature requests), just go upstream and ensure they know about it. :) Or even provide a patch there... I know I just might try.
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
It still applies to fedora devel. I set version to fc6.

Still there in rawhide. I cannot update the version.
I updated the version.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
