Details

After upgrading util-linux (2.22.1-3 => 2.22.2-1) my blkid commands fail randomly. In particular, they fail when querying a luks-encrypted loopback file. This log demonstrates my problem: http://ix.io/3tw

Because of the randomness, at first I thought the difference was passing an extra space to the argument, which led irc people to reasonably assume a shell error. So a lot of the commands in that log were meant to demonstrate it is not in fact a shell error.

The util-linux upstream link just points to a raw file server, so I'm not sure where else to report this. I could not find a util-linux bug tracker on google, either. Folks on irc told me to just try reporting here. Thanks!

Sorry I forgot to edit out the ix.io link and give the attached file a more descriptive name. I'm new to the Arch bug tracker and can't edit it. Will be more careful next time!

I can't reproduce this. Any chance you could provide the failing file?
