[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#659246: cifs-utils: the uid= argument to mount.cifs no longer works with symbolic names

[Michal Suchanek]

Package: cifs-utils
Version: 2:5.3-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I have a script which mounts with -o uid=`id -un`

With current smbfs the files on the share are root owned which is a regression and contradicts mount.cifs(8).

Using id -u works around the issue.
