Eh, it changes from time to time and isn't exactly advertised, no worries. And this time I'm a bit behind so xfsprogs is as well. Normal xfsprogs cycle lately is something like: Release the last version to match the last kernel, shortly after last kernel release Start merging in libxfs changes from next devel kernel to prepare for next release, cut -rc0 Pick up most of the accumulated pending patches, cut an -rc1 do the normal soak/patch collection until release, rc's as needed rinse, repeat. -Eric
