I had an adventure updating my kernel today, due to the apparent lack of any XFS support in the latest Gentoo kernel release. I had to revert to xfs-sources, which is running kernel 2.4.18.

Is this going to be fixed soon?

It's not a bug -- the gentoo-sources kernel was deliberately released sans XFS support. Don't remember the reason, but search the mailing list as the issue was discussed extensively there.

Well, that's good to hear. Is work being done on getting the XFS back into the main kernel? I saw that somene released an (apparently) functional patch.
