@toekneefan -- Our tests of 2.2.1 from Noble Proposed showed that it was actually "enabled" by default, instead of being disabled like they said they did in it's release notes... So the rpool installs as "active", and any other pools created with feature=default (or just omitted) are created as that being "enabled"... So assuming that was turned off, turned out to be wrong.

The only way I got that feature to create new pools with feature@block_cloning=disabled, was to explicitly pass that in the creation statement.

The Canonical 'ubuntu-desktop-installer' team needs to know they need to add option that to the ZFS scripted installer script... In my debug traces during the install, they are passing "features=default"... If that feature does need to be turned off.

I guess that only really matters if these patches for the Bug works and prevents it when they hit us and are applied. That "is" why turning off that feature was done for the meantime.
