Hi Michael,

I'd like to make a stable upload for udisks2, fixing #992152:
"udisks2: please update Recommends on exfat-utils to exfatprogs for Linux kernel 5"

This issue has already been fixed in unstable/testing and the relevant
changes for bullseye are an upstream cherry-pick and a packaging
cherry-pick.

How compatible are exfat-utils/exfatprogs?  E.g. could this cause
unexpected results (outside of udisks) for a user system that switched
to exfatprogs as a result of this?


The command line tools are (mostly) compatible. I'm only aware of the
issue detailed at https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/issues/882
i.e. exfat-utils provides a mkextfatfs tool, whereas exfatprogs doesn't

It is my understanding that exfatprogs is the vastly superior implementation and we should prefer it over the FUSE based one.

I've CCed Sven, as exfatprogs maintainer,  for his input.

Regards,
Michael
