Description Till Maas 2008-10-06 09:47:50 UTC
Description of problem:
From Documentation/filesystems/tmpfs.txt in the kernel documentatione:

117 To specify the initial root directory you can use the following mount
118 options:
119 
120 mode:.··The permissions as an octal number
121 uid:.···The user id
122 gid:.···The group id

The manpage only mentions "mode".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
util-linux-ng-2.13.1-2.fc8

Comment 1 Karel Zak 2008-10-06 11:08:38 UTC
Fixed in upstream tree and F10 tree. I'll fix it in F8 and F9 together with some more important issue. Thanks.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 8.  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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '8'.

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 8'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 8 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:

Comment 3 Till Maas 2008-12-08 07:18:47 UTC
I guess it is not fixed in F9, but I can confirm, that it is fixed in F10. :-D

Comment 4 Karel Zak 2009-03-19 10:01:43 UTC
Fixed in F-10, F-11, and I think that's enough :-) CLOSING.
