Phillip, is there any chance you can point me at your updated
util-linux package?

I'd like to install it on my laptop because at this point, I'm much
more willing to risk potential regressions if that means I can use a
newer version of util-linux.

Or maybe you it could get uploaded to experimental?

Many thaks!!
