The patch is not applied yet. Maybe I should release a snapshot (at least) with urgent things like hwclock or some mount patches. But I think you should ask downstream (your distribution) maitainer to apply these kind of patches. They have pretty stable util-linux packages now. I'll need few weeks to prepare useful util-linux-ng release. (I'm going to add the patch to Fedora tree.) > I see there's a GIT archive but you don't seem to have merged the patch I sent > you back in November ... and the GIT tree doesn't show any active development, > no commits except syncing to old releases. Please, don't use broken gitweb at kernel.org or use it very carefully. There is active development, see "log" in the devel branch: http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-linux-ng/util-linux-ng.git;a=log;h=devel Number of applied patches: $ git rev-list --pretty=oneline devel ^master | wc -l 52 Number of patches in queue: $ ls util-* | wc -l 49 The good news is that I have more time and I work on that full time now.
