Hello James, James B: > I fudged it make force ver.c to return 0 whatever the result of the version > comparison is; and I got all the usual utilities built - but my question is, > would that work? Is the aufs4.14 branch of aufs-util compatible with aufs5.3?
Currently the answer is yes. For aufs5.x, aufs-util#aufs4.14 should be used. But I understand this is not straightforward and easy. I already created aufs4.19 branch as my development base version. But now I am wondering that the necessary thing might be aufs5.0 and aufs5.x-rcN branches. I will do that in a week or two. The aufs-util code essentially won't change. Just the version checking will change. J. R. Okajima
