Hello,
Using older libguestfs 1.34.6-2 (from Ubuntu's standard package),
I encountered this:
libguestfs fails with an error, but the error code is "success":
$ sudo guestmount -m /dev/sda1 --ro \
-o allow_others \
-a data.qcow2 \
/media/foo
fuse: unknown option `allow_others'
libguestfs: error: fuse_new: /media/foo/: Success
Other fuse errors also cause the same behavior,
e.g. mounting to an already-mounted directory:
$ sudo guestmount -m /dev/sda1 --ro -a data2.qcow2 /media/foo
/media/foo mountpoint is not empty
fuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
libguestfs: error: fuse_mount: /media/foo: Success
I guess libguestfs uses the most recent 'errno'
to report the error string, but it is zero
(because the error was somewhere deeper, in fuse).
