[arch-general] util-linux 2.19 release

[Dave Reisner]

Attached is a changelog and a PKGBUILD for the recently released
util-linux 2.19. Changes I've made to the PKGBUILD:

- name change: the project is once again called util-linux. I've updated
  the conflicts accordingly, and removed the ancient reference to
  linux32. I think its worth keeping the versioned conflict with
  e2fsprogs.
- remove install scriptlet: this info file is no longer provided
- use autogen.sh script instead of manually invoking autotools
- remove --enable-rdev flag. this has been non-existant since 2.17
- no need to rm stuff in package() -- these files are no longer part of
  util-linux

Other thoughts: If we build this with --enable-libmount-mount, we can do
away with /etc/mtab and make it a symlink to /proc/self/mounts. It is,
however, marked as experimental in the release notes.

I've been running the -git version of util-linux for about a month now,
and have had no problems with low level functionality e.g. booting or
mounting.

thanks,
dave

Util-linux 2.19 Release Notes (10-Feb-2011)
===========================================

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
