The following packages have been released to the elrepo-testing repo: x86_64: ecryptfs-utils-111-19.el8.elrepo.x86_64.rpm ecryptfs-utils-devel-111-19.el8.elrepo.x86_64.rpm kmod-ecryptfs-0.0-1.el8_2.elrepo.x86_64.rpm src: ecryptfs-utils-111-19.el8.elrepo.src.rpm kmod-ecryptfs-0.0-1.el8_2.elrepo.src.rpm Please let us know if they work. |

I believe the %post/%postun can be dropped from ecryptfs-utils. The authselect rpm shipping with EL8 doesn't contain the 'with-ecryptfs' feature profiles. It may be worth adding 'Recommends: kmod-ecryptfs' to the ecryptfs-utils rpms. There is plausibly a use case for ecryptfs-utils-devel without the kmod. But I strongly doubt that is the default usage. If I'm right, most folks will also want kmod-ecryptfs if they've installed ecryptfs-utils. Beyond that, I can confirm these rpms work under the following test cases: - new ecryptfs directory can be created and managed - new ecryptfs directory can be shared with an EL7 system (via USB) - new ecryptfs directory can be shared with a Fedora 32 system (via USB) - existing ecryptfs directory (from EL7) can be mounted on EL8 - existing ecryptfs directory (from Fedora 32) can be mounted on EL8 I'm confident that the binaries work exactly as expected. |

Thank you for the suggestions. Regarding adding 'Recommends: kmod-ecryptfs', I am rather relactant because we have users running kernel-ml and centosplus kernel. ecryptfs is enabled in those kernels. |

The revised version of ecryptfs-utils is now syncing to mirrors: ecryptfs-utils-111-19.1.el8.elrepo.src.rpm ecryptfs-utils-111-19.1.el8.elrepo.x86_64.rpm ecryptfs-utils-devel-111-19.1.el8.elrepo.x86_64.rpm |
