[Gluster-users] Issues with Geo-replication (GlusterFS 6.3 on Ubuntu 18.04)

Fixes on master (before or after the release-7 branch was taken) almost
certainly warrant a backport IMO to at least release-6, and probably
release-5 as well.

We used to have a "tracker" BZ for each minor release (e.g. 6.6) to keep
track of backports by cloning the original BZ and changing the Version, and
adding that BZ to the tracker. I'm not sure what happened to that practice.
The last ones I can find are for 6.3 and 5.7;
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=glusterfs-6.3 and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=glusterfs-5.7

It isn't enough to just backport recent fixes on master to release-7. We
are supposedly continuing to maintain release-6 and release-5 after
release-7 GAs. If that has changed, I haven't seen an announcement to that
effect. I don't know why our developers don't automatically backport to all
the actively maintained releases.

Even if there isn't a tracker BZ, you can always create a backport BZ by
cloning the original BZ and change the release to 6. That'd be a good place
to start.
