Hello,

This morning I noticed the following output from "yum update":

Installing:
 drbd82                  x86_64     8.2.5-1.el5.centos  extras
209 k
     replacing  drbd.x86_64 8.0.11-1.el5.centos

As far as I'm aware DRBD works fine for me. Is there a way I can find out
about the new release and weather I should upgrade?

I can't figure out the CentOS issue tracking system at bugs.centos.org but a
google site search came up with
http://bugs.centos.org/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=2657 (a DRBD 82 tracker bug
with empty reports), which makes me feel like this version of the package is
not 100% trusted.

So - should I upgrade it or not?

Generally, I try to stick to the "standard" as much as I can, but the text
in http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories gives an impression that "if it's in
Extras, it's well tested".

Thanks,

--Amos
