I'm glad to announce kmod 5! Signed tarball is available at http://packages.profusion.mobi/kmod/kmod-5.tar.xz http://packages.profusion.mobi/kmod/kmod-5.tar.sign This version included several bug fixes and we needed to break the API in order to be able to share code between the lib and modprobe. Now the API udev should use is the same as used by modprobe. This way we can more easily reproduce the bug reports. We added a testsuite, too. Now it's possible to automate tests and check for regressions. People out there reporting bugs (I'm looking at package maintainers) could give a look in testsuite/README if they can add a test case there to reproduce their problems. Most of the time will be a copy and paste from other tests + some set up of configs. This is the last version to be hosted at ProFUSION's servers. We are finishing to set up stuff on kernel.org and repository and tarballs will be available there soon. Please check NEWS file that we ship with kmod for more information. Shortlog is below.
