[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#880889: zfs-linux: zvol not in /dev after upgrade to 0.7.3-1

[Antonio Russo]

Control: tag -1 patch

Good point. The attached patch takes the (somewhat heavy-handed) approach
of requiring that the zfsutils-linux version match the package's version.
It also makes zfsutils-linux conflict with (actually "break") a mismatched
zfs-dkms package.

This should make upgrading by just installing zfsutils-linux of the correct
version easy.

I think this is probably for the best, since all these tools are developed
under the assumption they come from the same release.
