+Subject: [PATCH] Fix the hardcoded legacy helper path
+
+Fix the below issue:
+"~# drbdadm --version
+execvp() failed to exec drbdadm-84: No such file or directory"
+
+The legacy helper path was hardcoded to "/lib/drbd", which does not exist
+on systems where LIBDIR is configured to a different location (e.g.
+/usr/lib). This caused drbdadm to fail when attempting to exec drbdadm-84.
+Use the build-configured DRBD_LEGACY_LIB_DIR (derived from LIBDIR) instead
+of the hardcoded path, so the legacy helper lookup respects the actual
+install prefix.
+
+Upstream-Status: Pending
