On further thinking, probably it would be to have it imported it as a new
package, mostly for 1 reason:
- If we rename util-linux-ng, it will break possible updates of it for
mageia1 (as it will be gone from svn)
Also, I've disabled the loopAES patch which is hopelessly outdated and
broken and only gets updated sometimes over past years. I think there are
much better solutions now, and actually I think that we could drop it - but
I did not wanted to take this decision without additional discussion.
If we should keep it, it can be updated after a reasonable amount of work,
but it will get broken again with a new util-linux release over and over
again. So I'd vote for dropping it.
But besides that, util-linux 2.19.1 is there now, I'll try importing it
today (but with 3g connections it is hard to make promises)..
