RFC: Schedule EFS for removal.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



EFS aparently is broken (See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1020)
has been so for some time, and attempts to fix it have been rejected.
Given there's a userspace app to access these volumes, how
about scheduling it for removal ?
