I made it work, then it was rebooted for maintenance and broke again (the |
| 26 |
chroots were missing from fstab.) |

It is functioning now and no one has filed a bug report with sufficient |
| 28 |
detail of the deficiencies they are experiencing; plus it works for me when |
| 29 |
I try it. I asked Patrick to file a more detailed report than 'hey anoncvs |
| 30 |
is not working again.' |
