[Cluster-devel] gfs2-utils 3.1.5 Released

[Andrew Price <anprice@redhat.com>]

Hi,

gfs2-utils 3.1.5 has been released. This version features bug fixes and 
performance enhancements for fsck.gfs2 in particular, better handling of 
symlinks in mkfs.gfs2, a small block manipulation language to aid future 
testing, a gfs2_lockcapture script which replaces gfs2_lockgather, and 
various other minor enhancements and bug fixes.

The mount.gfs2 helper utility has been removed as it is no longer 
required to mount gfs2 file systems. gfs2_tool and gfs2_quota have also 
been removed. Users of gfs2_quota should now use the generic quota 
utilities and users of gfs2_tool should now use tunegfs2, gfs2 mount 
options and the generic dmsetup and chattr/lsattr tools.

See below for a full list of changes. The source tarball is available from:

   https://fedorahosted.org/released/gfs2-utils/gfs2-utils-3.1.5.tar.gz

component of Fedora (rawhide) at:
