Description:

The gfs2-utils package contains a number of utilities for creating,
mounting, checking, modifying, and correcting any inconsistencies in GFS2
filesystems.


Important Note: This is complicated.... so I'm going to be adding to this bug
over the next few days. Feel free to comment in the mean time, but not
everything is ready for a full review right away. The plan is this:

1. To bring back gfs2-utils as a package in its own right
2. To add a new subpackage to gfs2-utils, gfs2-cluster which will contain the
cluster parts of the gfs2 userland infrastructure
3. To drop those items from the pre-existing cluster package (which means
dropping the gfs2-utils binary package in its entirety, and the parts of the
cman binary package which will move into gfs2-cluster)
4. The new gfs2-utils package will then be built in all versions of Fedora and
work alongside the newly adjusted cluster packages

The main reason for doing this is that the releases of the GFS2 packages will
then be independent from those of the rest of the cluster infrastructure. That
means that the GFS2 team can deal with those releases directly, taking some of
the load from the cluster team.

The only missing item at the moment, is an init script for gfs2-cluster which
I'll add to the upstream source shortly. In the mean time, the gfs2-utils spec
file will, I hope, not change very much so that is available for review now.

The upstream source can be found here:
