Thank you for this information. According to documentation, new
quota-tools know about both old and new quota formats, so I don't need to
downgrade now. My personal part of the problem is solved. But I can't
didn't find any information about minimum quota-tools version in
neither Linus's, nor Alan's kernel. Although versions of other utilities
are listed in Changes.
