 distribution specific patches -- upstream does not include
 the"floppy" util

 not sure, maybe good enough for upstream (we will see in 2.15..)

> util-linux-ng-2.13-mount-pamconsole.patch

 old distribution specific patch (not planned for F10)

> util-linux-ng-2.14-blockdev-rmpart.patch

 (stupid) distribution specific patch (duplicate delpart(1)
 functionality.

> util-linux-ng-2.14-mount-file_t.patch

> util-linux-ng-2.14-mount-managed.patch

 distribution specific patch
