Changelog
e2fsprogs (1.41.0-3ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #254152, #246461), remaining changes:
- Do not build-depend on dietlibc-dev, which is in universe.
e2fsprogs (1.41.0-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* Fix mips-specific FTBFS problem in debian/rules file
* Synchronize section and priority levels in control file with the
FTP masters' override file.
e2fsprogs (1.41.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* Don't try to check the group descriptor checksum if the GDT_CSUM
feature is not present. (Closes: #490637)
* Add a new blkid -L option which pretty-prints the currently
available block devices. (Closes: #490527)
e2fsprogs (1.41.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream version
* Make e2fsck detect corrupted block group descriptors that would
cause it to relocate inode tables, causing more damage to the
filesystem, and make it try the backup superblock/block group
descriptors first.
* Fix resize2fs to clean up the resize_inode if all of the reserved
gdt blocks are consumed during an off-line resize.
* Enable huge_file, dir_nlink, extra_isize feautres for mke2fs and tune2fs.
* Enable huge_file, dir_nlink, extra_isize, and uninit_bg by default
in mke2fs.conf.
* Fix badblocks terminology in man page and program output.
(Closes: #440983, #440981)
* Clarify stripe-width and stride-size in mke2fs man page. (Closes: #487849)
* mke2fs: Dumb down filesystems for GNU Hurd (Closes: #471977)
* Add bash-static to the list of shells recommended for e2fsck-static
(Closes: #490003)
* mke2fs: Fix flex_bg metadata default layout to avoid a hole between
the bitmaps and inode tables.
e2fsprogs (1.41~WIP-2008-07-07-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream version (pre-release for e2sprogs 1.41)
* Update to indicate compliance with debian policy version 3.8.0.0.
* Fix e2fsck to not truncate valid extent files that are larger than
what is supported by indirect files.
* Add -dbg packages which contain the debugging information.
* mke2fs: Print a better error message when a device is too big.
(Closes: #488663)
* Create external journal devices with a default blocksize of 4k
* Fix bug in badblocks which caused crash when lots of -t patterns are
given. (Closes: #487298)
* Fix blkid handling of stale entries. (Closes: #487758, #487783)
* Update Vietnamese, Polish, French, Spanish, German, Catalan,
Dutch, Czech translations from the translation project.
* Fix FTBFS problem on MIPS (Closes: #487675)
* Fix bug in libuuid1.postinst which would cause it to blow up if
there were spaces around the equals sign in /etc/adduser.conf.
(Closes: #487443)
* Update/clarified man pages. (Closes: #393313)
e2fsprogs (1.41~WIP-2008-06-17-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream version (pre-release for e2fsprogs 1.41)
* New options to badblocks allow it to limit how quickly it reads
from disk (for background scrubbing) and abort after a finding
giving a number of errors.
* Add support for ext4 filesystem features. (Closes: #388452, #425477)
* Tune2fs can migrate a filesystem from using 128 byte inodes to
larger inode sizes so the user can take full advantage of ext4)
* E2fsck and mke2fs can optionally record an undo log which can be
replayed by the e2undo program.
* E2fsck will display a less cryptic message when the last check field
in the superblock is in the future. (Closes: #446005)
* Improve blkid probes for LVM volumes and swap partitions
* Mke2fs has a much more sophisticated system for controlling the
parameters of newly created filesystems. The -t option now is used
to specify the filesystem type. See the mke2fs and mke2fs.conf man
pages for more details.
* Resize2fs will now print the minimum needed filesystem size if given
the -P option, and will resize the filesystem to the smallest possible
size if given the -M option.
* E2fsck now performs more extensive and careful checks of extended
attributes stored in the inode.
* Mke2fs will always make sure that lost+found always has at least 2
blocks, even for filesystems with very large blocksizes (i.e., 64kb).
* The debugfs "ls" command now supports the -p option, which causes
filenames to be printed surrounded by double quotes.
* Fix a potential off-by-one buffer overflow in e2image
* The chattr program will now return a non-zero exit code in case of
failures.
* This version of e2fsprogs removes support for legacy big-endian
filesystems and for MASIX filesystems.
* Add I/O statistics reporting to e2fsck.
