Fedora Merge Review: xfsprogs http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/xfsprogs/ Initial Owner: jgarzik
I hereby disclaim all package ownership (and the same goes for jfsutils and reiserfsutils).

I've been ignoring that package for well over a year, and will continue to ignore it. It was assigned to me by someone else in a long-ago bombing run.
Cool... I don't think anyone foreseen such a possibility. So, should we use the orphaning procedure or what?
That's as good an idea as any, I suppose. The Extras community is probably far better suited to maintaining {xfs,reiserfs,jfs}utils packages than a Red Hatter anyway, because RH does not support the filesystems in question.
I could pick that up, but I'm not sure what the procedure is.
We've also got one of the XFS developers who was interested in taking this package over... Eric?
Sure I'll pick up xfsprogs and should try to get xfsdump in from extras too, I suppose. Jarod, expect questions from me :)
Looks like Russel has done the last few updates to xfsprogs, so we should probably poke him too... Axel, any objections to either Eric or Russell taking it over? Based on the changelog, this was originally pulled in from your packages, but both Eric and Russell come from SGI and still actively work on the XFS code...
Sure, I hadn't noticed that Eric and Russel were at RH now, they are both far better suited for any XFS bits than I am.
I just updated fc5 fc6 and fc7 to xfsprogs 2.8.18
Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: xfsprogs Updated Fedora Owners: esandeen,cattelan
cattelan doesn't seem to be a valid account system email. Should that be @redhat.com? Can you check and re-request?
closing this until cattelan has a fedora acct. AFAIK I'm the lucky new owner of xfsprogs, now.
