openSUSE dropping BCacheFS support |
 |
Jiri Slaby sent out a notice this week warning openSUSE users that BCacheFS (an advanced filesystem) will not be supported in versions of openSUSE which use version 6.17 (or newer) of the Linux kernel. "Given BCacheFS is "externally maintained" since 6.17, we are disabling the filesystem in 6.17 too. Therefore, everyone using it should follow the BCacheFS' upstream [advice on] how to install/use it. Anyone interested might also possibly prepare a KMP for themselves (and others). This means there are no new BCacheFS commits in the Linux tree and we won't be maintaining (backporting downstream patches) in openSUSE (as usually we do not)." This change is likely to affect Tumbleweed users only in the near future, though eventually openSUSE Slowroll users will be impacted too.
