[HEADS-UP] util-linux[-ng] and mtab

 I have pushed new util-linux into rawhide. The project has been
 renamed from util-linux-ng back to util-linux.

 The util-linux v2.19-rc1 contains support for systems without
 /etc/mtab (the file is replaced with symlink to /proc/mounts). 
 This feature is enabled by default on Fedora (due to systemd).

 If your system depends on regular mtab then you can remove the
 symlink -- mount(8) still supports old mtab too.
