Source: havp
Version: 0.93-2
Severity: grave
While testing havp before uploading I noticed that starting havp ends
quickly with:
| Starting HAVP Version: 0.93
| Filesystem not supporting mandatory locks!
| On Linux, you need to mount filesystem with "-o mand"
The so called "mandatory locks" have been removed from the Linux kernel
in v5.15 [0]. havp is compiled to use it and fails to continue if it is
not working.
We have to options now:
- Remove havp from unstable.
- Pass --disable-locking to configure and build it without it. This
forces havp to download everything scan it first.
I'm not a user of havp so I can't tell if disabling locking is an
option. There is a script with loopback mount and everything just to use
the locking without enabling it on the main partition.
The first 5.15 kernel was uploaded by the end of 2021 and this went
unnoticed until now. Probably even longer if it wasn't for #1016270.
Given that and the dropping popcon numbers, I lean towards RM.
Anyone?
