[arch-dev-public] [signoff] util-linux 2.19-3

[Ionuț Bîru]

Hi,

The util-linux-ng project has been renamed back to util-linux.

Release highlights
------------------

lsblk(8):
   - this NEW COMMAND lists information about all or selected block 
devices in
     tree-like format.

partx(8):
   - this command has been rewritten to use libblkid for partition tables
     parsing. It supports aix, bsd, dos, gpt, mac, minix, sgi, 
solaris_x86, sun,
     ultrix and unixware now.

   - supports new command line option "--show" to list partitions in new 
format

   - prints UUID and name for GPT and mac partitions

findmnt(8):
   - supports new command line option "--submounts" to list all 
submounts for
     selected mountpoint(s)

agetty(8):
   - supports new command line options "-c" and "-s" to reuse already 
initialized
     tty cflags and existing baud rate

mount(8), umount(8):
   - could be linked with libmount (--enable-libmount-mount) to manage 
userspace
     mount options outside /etc/mtab on systems where the file is a 
symlink to
     /proc/mounts. (EXPERIMENTAL)

losetup(8), mount(8):
   - uses /sys/dev/block/<device>/loop/backing_file rather than loopdev 
ioctls
     (requires kernel >= 2.6.37)

fsck(8):
   - supports new command line option "-l" to lock whole-disk device by
     exclusive flock(2). This option is recommended when more fsck(8) 
instances
     are executed in the same time.

rtcwake(8):
    - supports new mode "show" to print the current RTC alarm time

fstrim(8):
    - this NEW COMMAND allows to discard unused blocks on a mounted 
filesystem
      (wrapper for FITRIM ioctl)

swapon(8):
    - supports new options "discard" and "nofail"

blkid(8):
    - low-level probing (-p) returns "8" exit code for ambivalent 
probing results

libmount:
    - include file has been renamed from mount/mount.h to 
libmount/libmount.h

For a complete list of changes see docs/v2.19-ReleaseNotes

Packaging differences between util-linux-ng 2.18:
* removing the .install because  ipc.texi (info with IPC API docs) was 
removed from the source
* --enable-rdev deprecated
* tpowa changes --enable-libmount-mount link mount(8) with libmount 
(EXPERIMENTAL)
