this is not the same version ( 4.4 VS 4.5 )

i think we need to validate this and then see with our squashfs-tools maintainer to have his agreement for an update to version 4.5.

Then you need to make a new bug for it and not just pretend it never happened.

MGA8-64, Gnome

Installed squashfs

followed the guidance in:  https://tldp.org/HOWTO/SquashFS-HOWTO/creatingandusing.html

I was able to test this out and it does work as expected.

I'm confused. I've held off from validating for Mageia 8 because I don't see a "new bug" yet. Should i continue to wait, or go ahead with the validation? 

And what about Cauldron? Should this be made a Mageia 8 only bug now, since Comment 5 says it's "fixed" there?

Assigning back to Nicolas so Comment 10 and Comment 11 can be addressed in some manner.

updating first in cauldron. Mga8 will follow.

New version pushed in mga8/9

Nicolas, you changed this to a Cauldron-only bug, and I freely admit that I've been ignoring it because I don't go anywhere near Cauldron at this stage. 

But, I decided to take a look today anyway, and I see Comment 16 shows a mga8 src. Did you miss changing the "Version" field to Mageia 8?

MGA8-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50 in Dutch.
No installation issues.
Followed guidance as Brian pointed ti in Comment 12, went OK with the remark that I hadd to use the "-noappend" option to write to a formatted USB-stick.
As far as I am concerned, this update is good, provided TJ and Brian and Nicolas have sorted out their problems.

I had no problem with Brian's test. We just needed another on the new package.

Giving this an OK and validating.
