3815	Bugs in MediaMonitorUnix	anonymous	Isaac Richards	"There are two problems with MediaMonitorUnix:

1. When it scans /sys/block/<devicename> for partitions it treats file names as directories and tries to cd (change directory) into them.  This of course fails and then the corresponding cdUp() leaves the QDir object a directory above where it is supposed to be.  This then causes undefined behaviour (in my case I was getting MediaEvents telling me that $HOME had just been mounted).  The attached patch fixes this.

2. The committed changes for ticket #3662 are not quite correct.  Although they will stop /dev/sda itself from being monitored, partitions in /dev/sda will still be checked by FindPartitions() and then the call to AddDevice() will succeed.  MythHDD::checkMedia() will then attempt to mount the partitions (which in my case fails, but it shouldn't be called at all if the device is to be ignored).  shouldIgnore() should be called at the top of MediaMonitorUnix::FindPartitions() as per the original patch."	defect	closed	minor	unknown	mythtv	head	medium	invalid			0
