Hi all,

We held this back due to an LVM bug that was found in Fedora and came
under investigation (rsnapshot failed if an lvm:// entry was after the
regular backup entries.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1388209 describes the
bug).

A patch has been backported and tested in the Fedora build.

With this now fixed please be aware we'll be pushing the 1.4.2 update
in roughly a week, with the version currently in epel-testing being
the one due to be pushed.

The updated bodhi links for the version with the LVM fix:

EL6: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2016-386a6a5975

Regards,

James
