Package: util-linux
Version: 2.17.2-5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: fsck
Hi LaMont,
we'd like to use the new fsck -l (whole disk locking) option in systemd.
Please consider packaging a Git snapshot containing [1] or a cherry-pick
of that commit for the current version in unstable.
I've attached a patch based on [2] for your convenience.
Strictly speaking fsck/base_device.c is no longer necessary, so the
fedora patch removes that file from fsck/Makefile.am and regenerates the
build system.
I decided against that but if you prefer that I can provide and updated
patch for 2.17.2.
Cheers,
Michael
