ITP: xfsprogs -- Utilities for managing the XFS filesystem

[Nathan Scott <nathans@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I've been working on packaging the XFS userspace utilities, and
will upload an initial version within a week or so..

Package: xfsprogs, xfslibs-dev
License: GPL
URL: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/

Description:

 A set of commands to use the XFS filesystem, including mkfs.xfs.
 .
 XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated
 on the SGI IRIX platform.  It is completely multi-threaded, can
 support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes,
 variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of
 Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance
 and scalability.

and

 xfslibs-dev contains the libraries and header files needed to
 develop XFS filesystem-specific programs.


cheers.
