[Linux-cluster] gfs2-utils 3.1.6 Released

[Andrew Price]

Hi,

gfs2-utils 3.1.6 has been released. Notable changes include:

- A large number of improvements and bug fixes in fsck.gfs2, bringing 
the ability to fix a wider range of issues.

- mkfs.gfs2 now aligns resource groups to RAID stripes, automatically if 
it can, or by using new options (see the man page). It also now uses far 
fewer resources to create larger file systems.

- There is a new test suite, which can be run with 'make check'. The 
suite is quite small at the moment but we will be adding more tests in 
due course.

- gfs_controld has been retired, as it hasn't been required since Linux 3.3.

- Documentation has been improved and a doc/README.contributing file has 
been added to aid anybody interested in contributing to gfs2-utils.

See below for a full list of changes. The source tarball is available from:

   https://fedorahosted.org/released/gfs2-utils/gfs2-utils-3.1.6.tar.gz

Please test, and do make sure to report bugs, whether they're crashers 
or typos. Please file them against the gfs2-utils component of Fedora 
(rawhide):
