As seen on IRC: <ah> Hi. Just a short service announcement... the libmount/fsck patches got merged upstream for the benefit of kFreeBSD. This will mean that next upstream util-linux release will FTBFS on Hurd. See https://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2014/08/msg00011.html for more details.
And also explained a bit on http://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/contributing/ So, anybody up for this? Samuel
