[Bug 607702] [NEW] umount.cifs doesn't exist in maverick - pyNeighborhood isn't able to unmount share

 

Public bug reported:

 * umount.cifs (and by extension, smbumount) no longer exists upstream,
    because mount.cifs no longer permits non-root users to mount except by
    way of the standard /etc/fstab arguments.
Since cifs-utils 2:4.5-1 (see changelog https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/2:4.5-1), umount.cifs does no longer exist. 

Because of this, pyNeighborhood isn't able to unmount a share.

Solution: When umount.cifs is not available, use /bin/umount.
