&gt;&gt; &gt; Hi,<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; just wondering, is the switch from util-linux-ng 2.18 to util-linux<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; 2.19+<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; planned?<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; not yet because nobody proposed or had time, but if you want  this is<br>
&gt;&gt; i think the perfect time<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Cool, I can help with that!<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; What would be the best solution - import a new util-linux package, with<br>
&gt; Obsoletes/Provides for util-linux-ng; or rename util-linux-ng in svn to<br>
&gt; util-linux and update the spec?<br>
<br>
</div></div>i would prefer a rename, that way we keep the history in the SVN<br>
</blockquote></div><br>On further thinking, probably it would be to have it imported it as a new package, mostly for 1 reason:<br> - If we rename util-linux-ng, it will break possible updates of it for mageia1 (as it will be gone from svn)<br>

<br>Also, I&#39;ve disabled the loopAES patch which is hopelessly outdated and broken and only gets updated sometimes over past years.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.<br>

<br>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&#39;d vote for dropping it.<br clear="all"><br>But besides that, util-linux 2.19.1 is there now, I&#39;ll try importing it today (but with 3g connections it is hard to make promises)..<br>
