Hi, I'm quite concerned about the poor quality of multipath-tools. This is an absolutely vital application for many, required to even get a machine to *boot*.
There are a lot of outstanding bugs: * Fails to run kpartx when it should. This would have been detectable with a trivial amount of testing. #376161 * Wrong path to scsi_id. #358985, 99 days old. * PID file handling is broken. #294066, 1y 145d old, patch available. * Doesn't integrate into *ANY* initrd system. Means that systems that need multipath can't even *BOOT*. initrd patch available for 1y 193d. I will be packaging up my own multipath-tools-initramfs package so that the last problem can at least be solved for those of us that need to be able to boot a multipath system. I am gravely concerned, though, about the lack of attention this package is receiving. Does anyone intend to give it some TLC anytime soon? For those that have a fibre channel setup where multipath-tools is required, this is probably one of the most critical packages on the system.
