- Update to util-linux-2.26:
* based on the git master branch of util-linux, remove backported
patches (util-linux-libblkid-unsafe-chars.patch,
util-linux-libblkid-overflow.patch)
* zramctl(8): this NEW COMMAND allows to control /dev/zramN
devices
* agetty(8): supports new option --reload to force already
running agetty processes to reprint the /etc/issue file
* cfdisk(8), sfdisk(8) and fdisk(8): support sfdisk-compatible
scripts; it's possible to save your partitioning layout to text
files and (re)use it in all fdisks
* fdisk(8), sfdisk(8): support new command-line option "--output
<list>" to specify output columns for --list or print commands
* nsenter(1): has been updated to work with the latest kernel

changes in user namespaces supports new command-line option
"--setgroups=<deny|allow>"

the same semantics as -o for mount(8); it's now possible to
specify swap options on the command line by the same string as
in fstab

to specify tracks and --repair for broken floppies
* getopt(1): has been updated to the latest version (originally

- define upstream source for klogconsole and remove patches
- remove openSUSE 13.1 specific eject permissions, did not worked
anyway since eject-fpie.patch was removed
- always call autoreconf, not only for splitted packages, skip
autopoint (gettext)
Both removed patches are upstream. We only import whitespace
changes from upstream.
BTW python-libmount.spec was again not in sync ...

This update needs a special care:
1)
After first successful build on all platforms, "osc meta prjconf Base:System" must include:
%if 0%{?suse_version} > 1310
Preinstall: libsmartcols1
%endif
2)
You also need to make symlinks to util-linux-systemd and python-libmount.
And finally, this package is intended only for > 1310 (i. e. Factory).
3)
The spec file can have problems with (buggy) Factory check-in check:
ERROR: python-libmount: group for main package not set
There is false error and I have no work-around for this just now.
(If you want, please ping me (by mail) after package review, and I'll do all needed changes.)
- Update to version 2.25
(using work of Ruediger Meier <sweet_f_a@gmx.de>):
* based on the git master branch of util-linux
* many fixes (including bnc#869355, bnc#871951 and
bnc#871698#c49)
* new Python binding sub-package for libmount: python-libmount
* new library: libsmartcols
* new commands: lslogins, setpriv
* add fstrim systemd timer
* better systemd integration
* DROPPED command:
* cytune: Upstream decided to remove tool untested for years
that supports this old hardware.

- Dropped obsolete patch:
* util-linux-2.23.1-eject-fpie.patch (eject is no more SUID)
* util-linux-2.24-fdisk_remove_bogus_warnings.patch
(upstream fixed it in a different way)
* util-linux-HACK-boot.localfs.diff
(MOUNT_PRINT_SOURCE is no more referenced)
- Ported and renamed:
* util-linux-2.23.1-noenc-suse.diff
-> util-linux-noenc-suse.patch
- Split spec file to three stages:
* util-linux.spec: Everything that do not need python or systemd.
* util-linux-systemd.spec: Stuff that needs systemd:
util-linux-systemd and uuidd
NOTE: Not building systemd-less variants of utilities.
* python-libmount.spec: Just python-libmount
- Move bash-completion files to correct packages.
- Add patch util-linux-bash-completion-blockdev.patch.
- Add hacks to prevent damaging of spec files by format_spec_file
(bnc#891152, also edited util-linux-rpmlintrc).
- use nologin from upstream (was added in 2.24)
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/244468
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Base:System/util-linux?expand=0&rev=248
- remove unnecessarily added patches from SLE11:
* util-linux-update-default-commit-interval.patch, openSUSE has
never changed the default and neither will SLE12
* sfdisk-warn-about-2TB-limit.patch, fixed by upstream years ago
* umount-avoid-readlink.patch, this patch only affects unused
code and the used code does not have this bug
- edit util-linux-lscpu-improve-hypervisor-detection.patch to not
change the default behaviour of "lscpu -p" as documented in it's
man page. Now this patch only affects the summary output.

- Update to util-linux-2.24, see package changelog and
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.24/v2.24-ReleaseNotes
Most notable spec file changes:
- Added enable_last condition in case we don't want to use the last
binary from sysvinit-tools in future
- Upstream moved getopt examples from datadir to docdir but we keep
the old location because we would need to fix the manpage first.

VERIFY_SIG is not set, as it is expected to cause build loops.
If you want to set it to 1, then it would depend on request 198583.
- Update to version 2.23.2:
nsenter(1):
* this NEW COMMAND provides command line interface to setns()
Linux syscall and allows to run program with namespaces of
other processes
unshare(1):
* supports new PID and USER namespaces
fdisk(8):
* provides experimental support for GUID Partition Table (GPT),
the implementation is still not complete and some (unimportant)
features are missing.
* ~50% of fdisk code has been refactored, this task is going to
be complete in the next release. The goal is to have libfdisk
shared between all fdisks.
partx(8):
* supports new "update" command (implemented by
BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION ioctl)
mount(8):
* supports new userspace mount option x-mount.mkdir[=<mode>] to
create mountpoints on demand
* the support for propagation flags has been improved, now the
flags could be specified in /etc/fstab and used together with
regular mount options. It's also possible to specify more
propagation flags together. This EXPERIMENTAL feature is
implemented by additional mount(2) syscalls, because Linux does
not allow to use propagation flags with another options or more
flags together.
umount(8):
* supports new command line option --recursive to recursively
unmount all sub-mounts for the specified mountpoint * supports
new command line option --all-targets to unmount all
mountpoints in the current namespace for the specified
filesystem * the options --recursive and --all-targets could be
used together
dmesg(1):
* supports new command line options --color, --human and
--nopager, the --human option enables relative times, colors and
pager support.
su(1):
* supports new command line options --group and --supp-group to
specify primary and supplementary groups
chfn(1) and chsh(1):
* the commands could be linked with libuser to support non-local
accounts modification (e.g. LDAP, etc).
kill(1):
* the command has been improved to be compatible with procps
version, the procps version is deprecated now, the util-linux
version is enabled by default.
blkdiscard(8):
* this NEW COMMAND discard sectors on a device (for example on
SSD disks)
sulogin(8):
* provides multi-console feature from SysVinit
findmnt(8):
* provides new columns FREQ, PASSNO, ID, OPT-FIELDS, PROPAGATION
lslocks(8):
* provides new column BLOCKER and detects blocked locks
lsblk(8):
* supports new command line option --scsi and new columns HCTL,
TRANsport VENDOR and REVision
swapon(8) and losetup(8):
* the commands prints basic overview by default if no option
specified
column(1):
* supports new command line option --output-separator to specify
table output delimiter
rename(1):
* supports new command line option --symlink to rename symlink
target
hwclock(8):
* supports new command line option --compare to periodically
compare the Hardware Clock to the System Time (based on
adjtimex -c)
ipcs(1):
* supports new command line options --bytes and --human
wipefs(1):
* supports new command line option --force to force erase on used
devices
