[ANNOUNCE] util-linux v2.20.1

From: Karel Zak
Date: Thu Oct 20 2011 - 06:36:49 EST



The bugfix release util-linux 2.20.1 is available at

ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/util-linux/v2.20/

Feedback and bug reports, as always, are welcomed.


Please note that infradead.org is temporary location for the upstream
tarballs and https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux is temporary
location for the upstream git tree. I hope that whole FTP with all
util-linux history will be restored at kernel.org.

For all official stuff (tags, tarballs and announces) I use a new GPG
key (id EC39C284).

Karel
