Description Jan Pobrislo 2016-05-23 17:21:01 UTC 
New version of util-vserver ebuild checks for success of "setattr --barrier"
call, but this won't work on certain filesystems (notably btrfs and zfs). The
barrier is not always needed and is just additional security measure, so the
failure should be replaced with a warning noting when it's needed and how to
apply it manually. I'll attach a patch that does that later tomorrow.
