==== logrotate ====
== storaged replaces udisks2 ==


Rotates, compresses, removes and mails system log files
The `udisks2` package provides dynamic storage management functionality to legacy Fedora systems.  Most prominently, desktop environments like GNOME udisks to handle removable media, such as USB thumb drives, via a dbus interface.


  Old Version: 3.8.0 -> New Version: 3.8.1
Because udisks2 does not support more complex storage technologies such as LVM or iSCSI, it is being replaced in Fedora 25 by `storaged`, an enhanced fork of the udisks project. `storaged` is a drop-in replacement for `udisks2`, and the additional functionality allows administrators to use software like `Cockpit` in Fedora Server to manage these advanced storage resources.
