Reiser4progs

The tools to maintain a Reiser4 filesystem are called reiser4progs and can be found on kernel.org.

The current version is v1.0.7.

To compile reiser4progs, we'll need libaal too:

  $ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/reiser4/libaal/libaal-1.0.5.tar.bz2
  $ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/reiser4/libaal/libaal-1.0.5.tar.bz2.sign
  $ gpg --verify libaal-1.0.5.tar.bz2.sign libaal-1.0.5.tar.bz2
  gpg: Signature made Sun Apr 20 01:21:05 2008 CEST using DSA key ID 517D0F0E
  gpg: Good signature from "Linux Kernel Archives Verification Key <ftpadmin@kernel.org>"
  $ tar -xjf libaal-1.0.5.tar.bz2
  $ cd libaal-1.0.5
  $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/libaal && make && sudo make install

Now we can build reiser4progs:

  $ sudo apt-get install uuid-dev
  $ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/reiser4/reiser4progs/reiser4progs-1.0.7.tar.bz2
  $ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/reiser4/reiser4progs/reiser4progs-1.0.7.tar.bz2.sign
  $ gpg --verify reiser4progs-1.0.7.tar.bz2.sign reiser4progs-1.0.7.tar.bz2
  gpg: Signature made Mon Feb  9 17:43:05 2009 CET using DSA key ID 517D0F0E
  gpg: Good signature from "Linux Kernel Archives Verification Key <ftpadmin@kernel.org>"
  $ tar -xjf reiser4progs-1.0.7.tar.bz2
  $ cd reiser4progs-1.0.7
  $ CFLAGS="-I/opt/libaal/include" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/libaal/lib" \
   ./configure --prefix=/opt/reiser4progs && make && sudo make install
