Git commit 5b80c6045c5306e5e61f963d30c0a9b8773e5407 by Andrius Štikonas. Committed on 10/09/2020 at 22:54. Pushed by stikonas into branch 'fstab'. Fix fstab editing functionality. In the old code QByteArray fstabContents was actually empty. Also, writeData function was opening file in append mode, thus nothing was actually written. Split writeData function into two: * one for block devices * another for writing fstab file M +2 -2 src/core/fstab.cpp M +40 -1 src/util/externalcommand.cpp M +1 -0 src/util/externalcommand.h M +35 -3 src/util/externalcommandhelper.cpp M +2 -0 src/util/externalcommandhelper.h https://invent.kde.org/system/kpmcore/commit/5b80c6045c5306e5e61f963d30c0a9b8773e5407
