64 bit request - xfsprogs and zfs-fuse file systems

[pentam]

XFS and ZFS are advanced filesystems for Linux

xfsprogs exists as a 32 bit TCE, it should be an easy compile to make a 64 bit TCE
 
The ZFS filesystem has been ported to Linux in user space, and is called ZFS-FUSE in Debian/Sid

It would be great to have both, but porting XFS over to 64 bit would be a nice start.

cheers and thanks, Doug

xfsprogs posted, but not tested.

Super, Thanks.

I will test this evening...

Unfortunately, "mkfs.xfs  /dev/sda1"   fails due to missing "libxfs.so.0"

also, these appear to be dependencies: libhistory, libhandle, libreadline, ncurses
so those dependencies should be added to the "xfsprogs.tcz" package

[Juanito]

Did you download/load the extension using the apps gui?

readline is a dep, which would also load ncurses and libhandle is contained in the extension itself.

[Juanito]

bizarrely, "make install" does not install libxfs*.

Extension re-posted with libxfs* - let me know if it works.

Hi Juanito,

I managed to compile xfs 4.5.0 using 8.x/x86_64.

The install really does not add this library AND mkfs.xfs does not need it too.

But the one that is in the repository does need it.

oops - reposted
