[elrepo] Announcement: EL5 Updated kmod-option Release [Version 0.7.1-7]

[Alan Bartlett]

Announcing the release of updated kmod-option packages into the EL5
elrepo repository:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-option

This package provides the option kernel module, version 0.7.1-7, and
is kABI compatible with all kernels from 5.0 (kernel-2.6.18-8.el5)
upwards.

It is built to depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of
releases of the same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one
specific build.

This is a bug-fix release to resolve an observed regression:

We would like to thank Maksim Gefke for his original contribution of
the patch and his careful reworking of the same to resolve the above
issue.

The following files are currently syncing to the mirrors:

You may update your system by:

yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=elrepo update kmod-option

Once the package has been updated, remember to unload the old version
before loading the newer driver into the kernel:

/sbin/modprobe -r option
/sbin/modprobe option

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
