GnomeBaker error importing session when CD already mounted (0.5.0 breezy)

Bug #30558 reported by Richard Quirk on 2006-02-05

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	GnomeBaker	Fix Released	Undecided	Unassigned
	Debian	Fix Released	Undecided	Unassigned

Bug Description

1. Start Gnomebaker.
2. Insert a multisession CD that sessions may be added to. The CD is automatically mounted by the system.
3. Click the "Import" button to import the exisiting sessions
Expected Result: The sessions are read in.
Actual Result: An error dialog is shown saying that the CD can't be read/is already in use.
"Error trying to open /dev/hdc exclusively (Device or resource busy)... retrying in 1 second."

The work-around is to unmount the CD after inserting it. Perhaps Gnome Baker should do this automatically before trying to import the sessions?

This 1 line patch seems to fix the problem. It unmounts the CD before reading the session info via cdrecord.

Just seen the latest 'baker 0.5.1 version does a similar thing too. Ah well, should be fixed in Dapper then :)

Do you mean 0.5.1 fix the problem?

Yes, in Gnomebaker 0.5.1 it looks like this problem is fixed. 0.5.1 unmounts the cd before reading the CD sessions. Here was the cvs checkin that fixed this particular problem.
