According to http://moosefs.com/support/, versions 1.6.x of moosefs were EOL'd at year's end back in 2015. They've since gone through an also EOL'd version 2.x series and are now at 3.x. I suggest a version bump or removal from portage. Reproducible: Always
What does EOL really mean? Is the software still usable in theory?
(In reply to Jonas Stein from comment #1) > What does EOL really mean? My guess was that it at least means "don't use this". Further reinforced by the lack of linked docs for 1.x (2.x and 3.x are linked). Do we need to know exactly? I could try to write then, > Is the software still usable in theory? Yes, but AFAIK I don't think you can use any of the clients or cluster components with the last 2.x or latest 3.x. I am really not sure it is a good idea to even try to run 1.x though. Have a look at the release logs since then: https://github.com/moosefs/moosefs/blob/master/NEWS
