Note that this affects mkhfs only. It's still possible to check legacy HFS filesystems, so fsck.hfs still supports legacy HFS filesystems. If you want to create a legacy HFS filesystem from Linux, you can just use "hformat" from the hfsutils package which I will be adopting in the near future as well (hopefully before the freeze). > As a workaround, would it be possible to allow two version of the > package with different names? I would suggest just hformat from hfsutils your suggested workaround would cause substantially more work in order to make the packages co-installable. Adrian -- .''`.
