I was wondering if you expect to release an el8_7-compatible version of the kmod-drbd84 package soon. The most recent version on your mirrors, kmod-drbd84-8.4.10-1.18.el8_6, does not play well with Rocky 8.7.<br>>> ><br>>> > Also, are there plans to release a DRBD 8.4.12 package?<br>>> ><br>>> > Thanks for your excellent work.<br>>> ><br>>> > Regards,<br>>> > ________________<br>>> > John McNally<br>>> > <a href="mailto:jmcnally@acm.org" target="_blank">jmcnally@acm.org</a><br>>><br>>> Our installation test indicated that the latest package, kmod-drbd84-8.4.10-1.18.el8_6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm, should work fine with el8.7.

4.18.0-425.3.1.el8. The symptom is sudden system crash when a DRBD
device is initialized running on this kernel. If I reboot with the v8.6
