I'm surprised such things as added commands aren't in the ChangeLog, unless they were present from the first version. > Do you really need to know if "xfs_check" was added in 1994, or 1995, for > example? :) No. I need to know what was the first version of the xfsprogs package that contained this program. The version number, not the year. > This strikes me as a bit of an odd question; what is your motivation here? I'm writing a program that executes xfs_db and other processes, passes commands to them and reads replies. Now I want to know what the minimum required version is to be sure that these commands are accepted. I know this might seem strange, but I'd like to know this in more detail, so I can say "requires xfsprogs version X.Y.Z or newer" instead of "requires xfsprogs" (which would imply that all versions work, and this might not be the case). If it would be "1.0.0", great. But I wanted to be sure. -- Pozdrawiam/Regards - Bogdan (GNU/Linux & FreeDOS) Kurs asemblera x86 (DOS, GNU/Linux):http://rudy.mif.pg.gda.pl/~bogdro Grupy dyskusyjne o asm: pl.comp.lang.asm alt.pl.asm alt.pl.asm.win32 www.Xiph.org www.TorProject.org Soft (EN): miniurl.pl/bogdro-soft _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
