The current testing sys-kernel/xen-sources version is based on the 2.6.34 Linux kernel, which includes the drbd-8.3.7 module. Upstream suggests to match userland tools with kernel-land module, and we lack an ebuild for drbd-8.3.7 userland. Since DRBD is often used in Xen-based clusters, please add an ebuild for 8.3.7 to portage.
" [ebuild request] " is the usual call for a package to be added to the tree.
Hi Luca, it's fixed in tree. *drbd-8.3.7 (29 Apr 2011) 29 Apr 2011; Ultrabug <ultrabug@gentoo.org> -drbd-8.3.6.ebuild, +drbd-8.3.7.ebuild: Add a drbd-8.3.7 version to match sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.34 userland needs. Fix bug #365005. Drop old. Thanks to Luca Lesinigo for reporting. Please keep in mind that we will have to continue doing this with the next releases of xen-sources/drbd so we will be glad if you keep on having an eye on this matter and fill bugs about it :) Thanks !
