I was able to successfully test COPR rhawalsh/dm-vdo package kmod-kvdo on Fedora32.

It does not appear that the updated package is available in the updates-testing repo on Fedora31 yet, though.  I can test tomorrow if it shows up for me.

Thanks for the fix.

I just tested successfully with my COPR rhawalsh/dm-vdo package kmod-kvdo on Fedora31.  Both updates work for me!
