Ubuntu (and Debian) packages the aufs module as part of the kernel, so its version can easily be inconsistent with the userland aufs-tools package. When you say the $AUFS_VERSION variable, do you mean the macro definition in /usr/include/linux/aufs_type.h? This is built from the kernel source but can again be a different version from the installed kernel (it's in the linux-libc-dev package). So, which to believe? All of them, as they refer to different parts of aufs... Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Larkinson's Law: All laws are basically false.
