12 I rebooted and everything is working again. I was on pins and needles
13 while waiting, but a backup went fine last night.
14
15 util-linux still complains:
16
17 >>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/util-linux-2.18/work/util-linux-ng-2.18 ...

27 and that log says

36 can't find file to patch at input line 13
37 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
38 The text leading up to this was:
39 --------------------------
40 |If this patch does not apply cleanly to newer version of util-linux-ng, try
41 |replacing original lomount.c lomount.h loop.h losetup.8 files in mount
42 |subdirectory with versions from util-linux-ng that the patch is for. And
43 |then apply this patch.
44 |
45 |mount/Makefile.in is a generated file. You can ignore patch failures on that
46 |file if you generate it again by running the ./autogen.sh script. That
47 |./autogen.sh script needs recent versions of autohell tools.
48 |
49 |diff -urN util-linux-ng-2.17.1/mount/Makefile.am util-linux-ng-2.17.1-AES/mount/Makefile.am
50 |--- util-linux-ng-2.17.1/mount/Makefile.am 2010-02-04 13:53:56.000000000 +0200

53 So I suppose I should open a bug on it. If it can't even find the
54 file, I don't think replacing existing files from elsewhere will do
55 any good. That also implies upstream will get things straightened out
56 sooner or later anyway.
