This package should only be flagged out of date if there is a release of loop-aes which offers a new diff.

Hi Great package but small error on my end: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.19/util-linux-2.19.1.tar.bz2 404 Not Found Worked well first time but now I had to copy around some file's good thing i don't clean my ~/aur that often ;) Also a suggestion: Adding a inithook to automate the kernel patch, mite save some work.

Sorry for the delay; been away for a while. Updated to new version and no problems so far on my side. Changed to direct loop-AES diff file instead of downloading everything else--seems ok to me.

2.19.1 is out since may, 2nd: check http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.19/v2.19.1-ReleaseNotes

small update: after a brief discussion on the forums (in AUR section if you want to search) I decided it was enough to print a warning message for first time installs (e.g. post_install() but not post_upgrade()).

not a problem, i appreciate your feedback. 2) you may be right. i'll see what i can do and hopefully find a simple and non-intrusive way of dealing with this. may take a little thought preparation before i resubmit the package though.

hey, glad u found my suggestions useful... 2) yeah, i mean something like that. u may be right that the user should know what to do...it's up to u, i don't know if there's a package convention or something. if you decide not to follow the config options check, at least a disclaimer with a warning should be put, in my opinion, expecially the installation of this package will remove the stock util-linux. if im not wrong, if u install this package and kernel is not compiled correctly, and there's not a patched loop.ko, system is going to be messed. another option would be to check for a patched loop.ko, but i dont know if this can be done since that is a binary...

@gemon: 1) i'll fix that, thanks. 2) you mean when checking the config to check for; [[ CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP == [YM] && CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_AES == Y && CONFIG_MODULES == Y ]], or what? i'm not sure how important this is to deem necessary a PKGBUILD to check system files. i personally think it should be up to the user to know if their kernel is patched or not but that's just my opinion. am i wrong in thinking this?

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-03-03 17:27 (UTC)

milo, a couple of suggestions for the pkgbuild: 1) why dont u make the patch downloadable through the loop-aes website? 2) why dont u put a check on kernel config to stop building package if required config options are not set as they're required by loopaes? regards gemon

2.19 with loop-aes patch works for me but is considered [testing]. let me know if you have problems. util-linux-ng-aes 2.18 is still available in AUR (so far).
