Package needs new maintainer. (I no longer actively use AFS.)

I changed PKGBUILD and openafs.install a bit. Maybe you want to use it here: PKGBUILD: http://pastebin.com/XxtM2WWn openafs.install: http://pastebin.com/QrrWJdSC kernel-3.1.patch: http://pastebin.com/2npsc9uL Changes: - Remove note in openafs.install on ReiserFS - Change modules directory from /lib/modules/VERSION/fs to /lib/modules/extramodules-VERSION-ARCH (untested, we will see how it behaves after next kernel update) - Add patch to fix problems with Linux 3.1 (should be removed when a new version of openafs is available)

@Bevan Thanks for the reply. I haven't understood how it works myself, I just realised it would be nice to have the functionality for this module as well if possible.

@Eothred: If I'm correct virtualbox modules are now provided in binary form by an own package. This just places the modules under /lib/modules/extramodules-3.x-ARCH instead of /lib/modules/3.x.x-x-ARCH. Therefore they don't need to be replaced when a new minor version of the kernel is installed (e.g. 3.1.3 -> 3.1.4). By the way: the proprietary nvidia drivers are handled the same. I think this should be possible for the afs module, too.

@jpate Perhaps because you need the patch for it to work? I'm not sure. I have noticed that virtualbox now recompiles when a new kernel is installed, upon next reboot (right?). Could something similar perhaps be done for this package?

why has this been flagged out of date? http://www.openafs.org/release/latest.html indicates this is the latest stable release.

Hi Bevan, thanks for this great hint. I pathced the diff into my local installation. And up to now it seams to work.

I'm getting frequent system freezes with kernel 3.1. The reason (and a possible fix) can be found here: http://gerrit.openafs.org/#change,5945

FYI: openAFS 1.6 used with a kernel >= 2.6.25 allows it to use any filesystem you want for the cache. So the note in openafs.install on ReiserFS is obsolete. You can even use tmpfs to store the cache data in RAM.

1.6.0 final release is out.
