Bug#396215: Problems with devices configured in /etc/fstab using UUID or LABEL

Package: libgnomevfs2-0
Version: 2.14.2-2+b1
Severity: normal

I have an IDE system, so my partitions are named /dev/hd*. Beginning
with kernel 2.6.19, I started to use libata, which made my partitions
accessible as /dev/sd*. As I still want to use an 2.6.18 as fallback I
decided to use UUID resp. LABEL in /etc/fstab, so that I can write 

LABEL=Backup (or UUID=xxx) /mnt/backup ...
instead of 
/dev/[hs]da5 /mnt/backup ...

Unfortunately gnome-vfs does not deal with this case properly, if I use
the option user, to make the partition mountable by normal users.
In that case the partition is listed twice under nautilus computer:///,
e.g. Backup and backup in my case.

Cheers,
Michael
