| Theodore Ts'o | 24757fa | 1997-04-29 17:39:27 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 4 | If the version string in the file version.h contains the |
| 5 | string "pre-", then this package must be distributed in source |
| 6 | form only. You can give a copy of the binary for e2fsck to |
| 7 | help a friend recover his or her filesystem, as the need |
| 8 | arises. However, "pre" indicates that this release is under |
| 9 | development, and availble for ALPHA testing. So for your |
| 10 | protection as much as mine, I'd rather not have it appear in a |
| 11 | some distribution --- especially not a CD-ROM distribution! |

| 13 | The most recent officially distributed version can be found on |
| 14 | tsx-11.mit.edu, in /pub/linux/packages/ext2fs. If you need to make a |
| 15 | distribution, that's the one you should use. If there is some reason |
| 16 | why you'd like a more recent version that is still in ALPHA testing |
| 17 | for your distribution, please contact me (tytso@mit.edu), and we can |
| 18 | see if we can't come to an arrangement. The release schedules for |
| 19 | this package are flexible, if you give me enough lead time. |
