mdadm 1.6 is out, see release announcement at: http://www.spinics.net/lists/raid/msg05416.html This may solve some of the problems listed in bugzilla #108580. Can -devel please be updated with the newer version?
1.7 is now out also: http://www.spinics.net/lists/raid/msg05975.html and http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/ So skip that last request, can we please jump to 1.7 ?
Upstream is up to 1.9.0, please upgrade the RPM in -devel...
1.9.0 is in -devel so I'll close this RFE off now. Thanks Doug
