UNC: \\afs\grand.central.org\software\openafs\1.8.16\

This release fixes a bug that had caused Linux 6.17 clients to not see filename changes made on other clients (originally reported by Gaja

Peters); adds packaging support for Amazon Linux; adds support for Linux

mainline kernels through 7.0; and works around an issue where client utilities (e.g., ‘fs’, ‘bos’) on macOS Apple CPUs would crash on startup

(by distributing the x86_64 version of the utilities and relying on Rosetta for execution); as well as other minor improvements.

Bug reports should be filed to openafs-bugs@openafs.org.
