1 e2fsprogs (1.41.14-1) experimental; urgency=low
4 * Fixed a FTBFS on big-endian architectures
5 * Fixed spurious warning in mke2fs
6 * resize2fs now works correctly on devices exactly 16TB
7 * resize2fs will no longer clear the resize_inode feature when the
8 number of reserved GDT blocks reaches 0. This allows a file
9 system with the flex_bg feature to be subsequently shrunk.
10 * e2fsck will no longer use the extended rec_len encoding for file
11 systems whose blocksize is less than 64k, to catch fs inconsistencies
12 which the kernel will complain about.

20 * E2fsck now understands UUID= and LABEL= specifiers for the -j option
22 * E2fsck.conf now supports a new config option, which forces the
23 problem not to be fixed: problems/<problem code/force_no
24 * Dumpe2fs now prints friendlier offsets for flex_bg file systems
25 * Mke2fs will now fail if the user uses an file system type not
26 defined in mke2fs.conf (Closes: #594609)
27 * Resize now prints a clarified error message explaining that on-line
28 shrinking is not supported at all. (Closes: #599786)
29 * Fixed a build error caused by bad static and profiled dependencies
30 for the blkid library (Closes: #604629)

34 * Fixed bad dependency on libblkid1 due to shlibs.local (Closes: #583551)
35 * E2fsck now opens the external journal in exclusive mode to prevent
36 clearing the journal of a mounted, snapshotted volume if the user

52 * E2freefrag will now display the total number of free extents.
53 * Resize2fs -P now longer requires a freshly checked file system
54 * Fixed a floating point precision error that can cause segfaults in
55 e2fsck and resize2fs in extremely rare cases
56 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which caused it to fail if both the original
57 and backup superblocks were invalid in some way

76 * New upstream release
77 * mke2fs now gives the correct error message if the external journal
78 is device is not found
79 * The resize2fs program will refuse to print the minimum size needed
80 for a file system if it is not clean.
81 * E2fsck now tests for extents that begin at physical block 0 and
82 rejects them as invalid.
83 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which could cause it to crash when trying to
84 remove an invalid extent and the block bitmaps hadn't yet been loaded.
85 * E2fsck will now completely skip time-based checks if the system
86 clock looks insane or if the broken_system_clock option is set
87 in /etc/e2fsck.conf. (Closes: #549861, #540152)
88 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which caused e2fsck to complain about i_blocks
89 with a 4T file created using posix_fallocate()
90 * E2fsck will now correctly mark a sparse journal as invalid and will
91 delete and recreate the journal to address the problem.
92 * Fixed e2fsck not to ask permission from the user to abort if it's
93 going to abort regardless of what the user is going to say...
94 * E2fsck can now continue even if it fails to recreate the resize inode
95 * E2fsck will now avoid removing directory entries for inods found in
96 the unused region of the inode table until after it restarts the fs
97 check to avoid removing valid data.
98 * E2fsck will now longer try to set the block group checksums if it
100 * Mke2fs will check both the physical and logical blocksizes of a
101 device to better support 4k sector drives.
102 * Mke2fs will accept the valid (but rarely useful) flex_bg size of 1
103 * E2fsck will check for cases where the EOFBLOCKS_FL is set whe nit is

118 * Allow e2fsck to run even if the physical device has more than 2**32 blocks
119 * Debugfs's "logdump -b <blk>" now properly shows the allocation status
120 of the block <blk>. (Closes: #564084)
121 * Make e2fsck's "the filesystem is mounted" message is now more scary
122 to hopefully dissuade users from thinking, "surely that message
123 doesn't apply to *me*" :-(
124 * e2fsck -n will now always open the file system read-only. We now
125 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual
126 exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are
127 smarter than they really are. So "-n -c", "-n -l", "-n -L", and
128 "-n -D" are no longer supported.
129 * If the partition is badly aligned, have mke2fs just print a warning
130 message and continue. Previously mke2fs would ask to confirm, and
131 this broke distro installation scripts.
132 * Fix a bug in libext2fs caused the creation of very large journals
133 for ext4 to be _very_ slow.
134 * E2fsck now understands the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag which will be used in
135 2.6.34 kernels to make e2fsck not complain about blocks deliberately
136 fallocated() beyond an inode's i_size.
137 * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause e2fsck -D to corrupt
138 non-indexed directories. (Closes: #572453)

152 default/broken_system_clock for system with broken CMOS hardware
153 clocks. (Closes: #559776)
154 * Fix flex_bg inode table placement algorithm used by mke2fs for
155 certain specific file system sizes
156 * Add source lintian overrids for weak-library-dev-dependency
157 * Fix FTBFS problem caused by texi2html changing (again) its output
158 location. (Closes: #552934)
159 * Make e2fsck to avoid rehashing directories which can fit in a
160 single directory block.
161 * Fix how e2fsck fixes sparse directories which are extent-mapped.
162 * Fix some big-endian bugs in e2fsck and libext2fs
163 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
164 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
165 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
166 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
167 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
168 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
169 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
170 (from the Translation Project)
171 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
172 non-indexed directories.
173 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.
174 * Enhance libext2fs so it works around bug in Linux version 2.6.19
175 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
177 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
178 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
179 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
180 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
181 * Update and clarify various man pages.
182 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
183 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
184 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
185 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
186 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
187 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
188 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
189 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
190 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
191 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
193 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
194 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
195 the block device is misaligned
196 * Fix a file descriptor leak in debugfs when sourcing a command file
197 * Fix a file descriptor leak in fsck
198 * Round up the bitmap size to prevent spurious segmentation faults on
200 * Fix resize2fs to correctly calculate the minimum size needed, when
201 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
202 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
203 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
204 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
205 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
206 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
207 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems

216 * New upstream release
217 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
218 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
219 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
220 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
221 table needs to be moved.
222 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
223 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
224 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
225 space in the entire filesystem.
226 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
227 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
228 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
229 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
230 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
232 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
233 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
234 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
235 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
236 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
237 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
238 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
239 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
241 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
242 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
243 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

285 * Fix memory leaks in e2fsprogs, including a very large memory leak
286 which can cause e2fsck to run out of memory when checking very large
287 filesystems using extents.
288 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
289 uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
290 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

298 journal and resize inodes.
299 * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the
300 superblock if the journal is moved; this avoids an unnecessary full
301 fsck after resizing the filesystem.
302 * Use the same encoding as the kernel for rec_len == 64k in 64k block

452 make sure the uninitialized flag in extents is preserved.
453 * Add mkfs.ext4 symlink to the e2fsprogs-udeb package (Closes: #511207)
454 * Resize2fs now reserves some extra block when calculating the minimum
455 size to shrink the filesystem in case some extent allocation trees
456 * Add a "set -e" to uuid-runtime's prerm script to make Lintian happy
457 * The blkid library will now recognize btrfs filesystems and swap
458 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.
459 * tune2fs will not allow changing the inode size for filesystems that
460 have the flex_bg feature enabled, since the code currently assumes
461 the each block group's portion inode table is located in its own
463 * Fix tune2fs -I so it won't corrupt ext3/ext4 filesystem configured
464 for RAID storage devices.
465 * Mke2fs now understands a -U option which allows the UUID to be
466 specified for the new filesystem.
467 * Mke2fs will now treat devices with exactly 16TB as if they have 16TB
468 minus one block, since many users expect ext4 to support 16TB
469 devices, and the true maximum size is 16TB-1.
470 * E2fsck will now flag filesystems that have an insane s_first_ino
471 field in their superblock.

2204 * This uploads fixes 10 bugs, including data-corruption problems, and
2205 adds much to the ease of maintainance and problem tracking. Good
2208 * New upstream release (Closes: #106622, #116975, #118443, #119624,
2209 #120171, #120077, #129828, #132764).
2210 ** Fixes for data-corruption bugs not reported to the BTS: e2fsck
2211 trashed external journals needing to be replayed, e2fsck now hides
2212 visible journal files (data corruption problems when not excluded from
2213 a backup and then restored) (Closes: #132654).
2214 ** Other noticable bugs fixed include: e2fsck null pointer
2215 dereferencing, fsck did not finds LVM volumes by UUID or by label,
2216 largefile support (ie. dealing with filesystems inside 2GB+ files) was
2217 broken in several programs.
2218 * Switch to debhelper v3 to get ldconfig automatically handled
2219 (lintian reported that it was broken). Now call dh_makeshlibs, but
2220 still override its generated shlibs file with ours, to get compiled
2221 packages depend of the correct virtual packages, which include
2223 * Removed call do dh_installman (Closes: #115526).
2224 * Cleaned up maintainer scripts with dead code - most things are now
2225 more properly handled by debhelper. Removed an "exit 0" lurking in
2226 preinst - can't find a reason for it in the changelog, it was probably
2228 * Remove obsolete maint-scripts in binary-arch, as they are provided by

2252 they add virtually no risk. Support for raw image files will be of
2253 great help to debug users' problems. Urgency set to "high" to make
2254 sure this version gets released with woody.

2259 have a pass number is 0. (Closes: #106696).
