473 * Mark the e2fsprogs package as Multi-Arch: foreign, so if a package
474 foo:i386 depends on e2fsprogs and is installed on an amd64 system,
475 the native e2fsprogs will satisfy the dependency. (Closes: #678395)
476 * Fix a fd leak which could cause logsave (and hence a boot-time rc
477 init script) to hang (Closes: #682592)
478 * Fix a problem if e2fsck where if the root file system is mounted
479 read-only, e2fsck would not clear an error indication in the journal
480 superblock. Combined with a kernel bug, this would cause the e2fsck
481 to check the file system after every single boot
482 * Fixed filefrag so it would not seg fault on virtual filesystems such
483 as /proc: e.g., "filefrag /proc/partitions"
484 * Fix filefrag so that it correctly reports the number of extents
485 * Fixed a bug which caused "mke2fs -N 256 -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img 256m"
486 to write blocks out until /tmp filled
487 * Fixed a bug in how e2fsck would uniquify directory entry names
488 * Change e2fsck so it will allow file systems mounted read-only to be
489 checked with the -f option.
490 * Fix e2fsck so that the file system is marked as containing an
491 error if the user chooses not to fix the quota usage information.
492 * Fix tune2fs so that it correctly removes the quota feature when
493 the last quota inode is removed.
494 * Fix tune2fs so that after removing a quota inode, the block bitmap
495 is updated; otherwise, e2fsck would complain after running 'tune2fs
497 * Fix tune2fs so that when converting a file system from using legacy
498 quota files to the new quota file system feature with hidden quota
499 files, the accounting for these files is handled correctly so that
500 e2fsck doesn't complain.
501 * The e4defrag program now allows device symlinks, such as
502 /dev/mapper/testvg-testlv, instead of insisting on less
503 human-friendly names such as /dev/dm-2
504 * Updated/fixed various man pages (Closes: #680114)

580 * Teach mke2fs to use direct I/O if the -D option is given
581 * Print errors returned by ext2fs_open2() and ext2fs_check_desc() so
582 we can more easily diagnose memory allocation failures caused by
583 insufficient memory and abort on memory allocation failures
584 * E2fsck can now write log files containing the details of the
585 problems that were found and fixed directly.
586 * E2fsck can now limit the number of messages issued and printed on
588 * The dumpe2fs, debugfs, and tune2fs now use rbtree bitmaps, which
589 cause them to use much less memory for large file systems.
590 * E2fsck will now check for zero-length extents, since older kernels will
591 OOPS if they comes across one
592 * Fix e2fsck's discard behaviour so it does not discard too many
593 blocks, and it will not use discard if the device advertises
594 that discard does not persistently zero data. Also, if e2fsck is
595 run in read-only mode, do not try to discard data.

928 * New upstream release
929 * mke2fs now gives the correct error message if the external journal
930 is device is not found
931 * The resize2fs program will refuse to print the minimum size needed
932 for a file system if it is not clean.
933 * E2fsck now tests for extents that begin at physical block 0 and
934 rejects them as invalid.
935 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which could cause it to crash when trying to
936 remove an invalid extent and the block bitmaps hadn't yet been loaded.
937 * E2fsck will now completely skip time-based checks if the system
938 clock looks insane or if the broken_system_clock option is set
939 in /etc/e2fsck.conf. (Closes: #549861, #540152)
940 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which caused e2fsck to complain about i_blocks
941 with a 4T file created using posix_fallocate()
942 * E2fsck will now correctly mark a sparse journal as invalid and will
943 delete and recreate the journal to address the problem.
944 * Fixed e2fsck not to ask permission from the user to abort if it's
945 going to abort regardless of what the user is going to say...
946 * E2fsck can now continue even if it fails to recreate the resize inode
947 * E2fsck will now avoid removing directory entries for inods found in
948 the unused region of the inode table until after it restarts the fs
949 check to avoid removing valid data.
950 * E2fsck will now longer try to set the block group checksums if it
952 * Mke2fs will check both the physical and logical blocksizes of a
953 device to better support 4k sector drives.
954 * Mke2fs will accept the valid (but rarely useful) flex_bg size of 1
955 * E2fsck will check for cases where the EOFBLOCKS_FL is set whe nit is
956 not needed, and offer to clear it.
957 * The com_err library will now only output a CR character if the
958 stderr is connected to a tty in raw mode.
959 * Update Czech, Chinese, Dutch, French, Germany, Indonesian, Polish,
960 and Vietnamese translations (from the Translation Project)
961 * Add an fsck.ext4 symlink in the e2fsprogs-udeb package (Closes: #571247)

970 * Allow e2fsck to run even if the physical device has more than 2**32 blocks
971 * Debugfs's "logdump -b <blk>" now properly shows the allocation status
972 of the block <blk>. (Closes: #564084)
973 * Make e2fsck's "the filesystem is mounted" message is now more scary
974 to hopefully dissuade users from thinking, "surely that message
975 doesn't apply to *me*" :-(
976 * e2fsck -n will now always open the file system read-only. We now
977 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual
978 exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are
979 smarter than they really are. So "-n -c", "-n -l", "-n -L", and
980 "-n -D" are no longer supported.
981 * If the partition is badly aligned, have mke2fs just print a warning
982 message and continue. Previously mke2fs would ask to confirm, and
983 this broke distro installation scripts.
984 * Fix a bug in libext2fs caused the creation of very large journals
985 for ext4 to be _very_ slow.
986 * E2fsck now understands the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag which will be used in
987 2.6.34 kernels to make e2fsck not complain about blocks deliberately
988 fallocated() beyond an inode's i_size.
989 * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause e2fsck -D to corrupt
990 non-indexed directories. (Closes: #572453)

1004 default/broken_system_clock for system with broken CMOS hardware
1005 clocks. (Closes: #559776)
1006 * Fix flex_bg inode table placement algorithm used by mke2fs for

1015 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
1016 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
1017 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
1018 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
1019 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
1020 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
1021 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
1022 (from the Translation Project)
1023 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
1024 non-indexed directories.
1025 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.
1026 * Enhance libext2fs so it works around bug in Linux version 2.6.19
1027 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
1029 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
1030 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
1031 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
1032 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
1033 * Update and clarify various man pages.
1034 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
1035 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
1036 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
1037 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
1038 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
1039 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
1040 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
1041 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
1042 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
1043 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
1045 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
1046 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
1047 the block device is misaligned
1048 * Fix a file descriptor leak in debugfs when sourcing a command file
1049 * Fix a file descriptor leak in fsck
1050 * Round up the bitmap size to prevent spurious segmentation faults on
1052 * Fix resize2fs to correctly calculate the minimum size needed, when
1053 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
1054 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
1055 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
1056 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
1057 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)

1071 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
1072 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
1073 table needs to be moved.
1074 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
1075 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
1076 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
1077 space in the entire filesystem.
1078 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
1079 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
1080 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
1081 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
1082 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
1084 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
1085 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
1086 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
1087 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
1088 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
1089 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
1090 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
1091 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
1092 Translation Project.
1093 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
1094 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'

1140 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
1141 uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
1142 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

1150 journal and resize inodes.

1285 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
1286 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split

1289 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will
1290 handle this and related failures robustly.

1295 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.
1296 * Fix a regression in debugfs's logdump command so it works for
1297 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
1298 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
1299 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
1300 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
1301 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
1302 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

1310 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.

1349 e2fsprogs (1.41.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
1351 * New upstream release
1352 * Fix e2fsck's automatic blocksize detection. This fixes a regression
1353 added in e2fsprogs 1.40.7 where e2fsck's -b option would not
1354 work if a blocksize wasn't also specified via the -B option.
1355 * Fix a potential file descriptor leak in libcom_err if the
1356 application exec's another program.

1704 * New upstream release.
1705 * Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
1706 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
1707 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
1708 even on ext3 filesystems.

1740 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
1741 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
1742 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up

1745 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
1746 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
1747 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
1748 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
1749 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
1750 part of the e2fsprogs package).
1751 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
1752 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
1753 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
1754 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).

3060 * New upstream release (Closes: #106622, #116975, #118443, #119624,
3061 #120171, #120077, #129828, #132764).
3062 ** Fixes for data-corruption bugs not reported to the BTS: e2fsck
3063 trashed external journals needing to be replayed, e2fsck now hides
3064 visible journal files (data corruption problems when not excluded from
3065 a backup and then restored) (Closes: #132654).
3066 ** Other noticable bugs fixed include: e2fsck null pointer
3067 dereferencing, fsck did not finds LVM volumes by UUID or by label,
3068 largefile support (ie. dealing with filesystems inside 2GB+ files) was
3069 broken in several programs.
3070 * Switch to debhelper v3 to get ldconfig automatically handled
3071 (lintian reported that it was broken). Now call dh_makeshlibs, but
3072 still override its generated shlibs file with ours, to get compiled
3073 packages depend of the correct virtual packages, which include
3075 * Removed call do dh_installman (Closes: #115526).
3076 * Cleaned up maintainer scripts with dead code - most things are now
3077 more properly handled by debhelper. Removed an "exit 0" lurking in
3078 preinst - can't find a reason for it in the changelog, it was probably
3080 * Remove obsolete maint-scripts in binary-arch, as they are provided by

3104 they add virtually no risk. Support for raw image files will be of
3105 great help to debug users' problems. Urgency set to "high" to make

3111 have a pass number is 0. (Closes: #106696).
