New package locations of xfsprogs vs. xfsdump

Hi,

I just bumped my xfsprogs on Gentoo to 4.8.0 to use the new download location at kernel.org and noticed that xfsdump is still at sgi.com, even though it has an empty directory at https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/xfs/xfsdump/.

Is xfsdump supposed to be there as well or has that migration just not happened yet? Just asking for packaging reasons.

thanks,
Holger

It's just that there hasn't been a release since the move. New versions should land on kernel.org.

I think Dave was looking into rebuilding and re-releasing old versions onto kernel.org, but I'm not sure if that has progressed.

No, I haven't made progress on that. Let me see if I've got the original release tarballs for recent xfsdump releases still around on my build machine. If I have, then I'll be able to resign and upload them, otherwise I'll have to spend the time to regenerate them.

In the mean time, just pull the git tree and set the head to the release tag, and it will give you the same result...

Cheers,

Dave.
