Hi guys,
A new util-linux is in [testing]. This is a bug-fix release and sorts
out all the patches we had against 2.20 as well as some regressions in
the new mountpoint implementation (full release announcement below).
Thanks to Dave for working with upstream to sort many of these things out.
Please test and sign-off both arches.
Cheers,
Tom

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] util-linux v2.20.1
To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org,
util-linux@vger.kernel.org
The bugfix release util-linux 2.20.1 is available at
ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/util-linux/v2.20/
Feedback and bug reports, as always, are welcomed.
Please note that infradead.org is temporary location for the upstream
tarballs and https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux is temporary
location for the upstream git tree. I hope that whole FTP with all
util-linux history will be restored at kernel.org.
For all official stuff (tags, tarballs and announces) I use a new GPG
key (id EC39C284).
Karel
