950 * New upstream version
951 * NMU acknowledge (Closes: #752107)
952 * mke2fs can now create hugefiles which are aligned to the beginning
953 of the disk (instead of relative to the beginning of the partition),
954 controlled via a mke2fs.conf configuration parameter.
955 * Fix a bug which caused e2fsck to abort a journal replay on a file
956 system with bigalloc enabled. (Closes: #744953)
957 * Fix mke2fs so it more correctly handles large flex_bg counts
958 * Mke2fs will check the kernel version number and not just the sysfs
959 feature flag to determine whether it is safe to enable lazy
960 inode table initialization, so it won't get faked out if the ext4 is
961 compiled as a module which hasn't happened to be loaded yet.
962 * E2fsck will now automatically fix a last mount time or last write time
963 which is in the future in preen mode.
964 * Mke2fs will now check the file system revision number requested by the
965 command line, and reject it if it is too large.
966 * If filefrag runs into an error, it will continue processing the rest
967 of the files specified on the command line, but then exit with an
969 * Filefrag now prints some additional new flags (such as
970 FIEMAP_EXTENT_ENCODED), and print unknown flags as hex values.

997 * New upstream version
998 * The mke2fs program no longer requires a force (-F) option when
999 when creating a file system in a regular file, since this is a very
1000 common use case when managing virtual machine images
1001 * The mke2fs program will now ask for confirmation before wiping out a
1002 pre-existing file system, partition label, or physical volume
1003 * Fix e2fsck so that it properly handles an inconsistent quota inode.
1004 Previously the quota inode could be completely corrupted, and
1005 missing quota records could be not noticed
1006 * Fix mke2fs so if packed metadata blocks are enabled that the block
1007 group checksum are set correctly
1008 * Debugfs has new commands to allow the quota inode to be queried directly
1009 * Tune2fs will allow removal of dirty journal with two "-f" options
1011 * Fixed some off-line resize2fs bugs when relocating metadata blocks
1012 when growing or shrinking bigalloc file systems
1013 * Fixed resize2fs's calculation of the minimum required file system
1014 size. This allows resize2fs -M to shrink the file system more
1016 * Fixed resize2fs to properly handle shrinking a very large and empty
1017 file system to a very very small size
1018 * Fixed e4defrag to work with 64-bit and bigalloc file systems
1019 * Fixed e2fsck to not issue a large number of very scary (but
1020 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
1021 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
1022 since January 1, 1970.
1023 * E2fsck will now check the whole file system if file system problems
1024 are detected during its initial "pass 0" sanity check
1025 * Filefrag now prints the "shared extent" flag which is used by some
1026 file systems such as btrfs
1027 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
1028 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was
1029 determined automatically. It will now also do the right thing when
1030 the user explicitly specifies the file system size.
1031 * The message printed by logsave is now much less scary (Closes: #468821)
1032 * Fix spelling typo in the package descriptions

1061 * Fix printf type format mismatch in e2image
1062 * Improved debugfs's error reporting when parsing block numbers
1063 * Use consistent configure options across the multiple e2fsprogs

1097 * Debugfs can now support a command line which is up to 8k long
1098 * E2image will refuse to create a raw or qcomw image using a mounted
1099 file system unless the -f option is given.
1100 * E2image has been made more useful for efficiently copying file
1101 systems using the -ra options. New options to help with this use
1102 case that were added: -o, -O, -p, and -c.
1103 * Fixed a regression introduced in 1.42.8 which would cause e2fsck to
1104 erroneously report uninitialized extents past i_size to be invalid.
1105 * Fixed cases where resize2fs could corrupt a file system, especially
1106 when shrinking a file system. (Closes: #660793)

1127 * Fix e2fsck so it can check a read-only root file system with an
1128 external journal. (Closes: #707030)
1129 * Fix off-line resizing of file systems with flex_bg && !resize_inode
1131 * Change mke2fs so that it does not set the root directory to the real
1132 uid/gid of the mke2fs process. Add the extended option root_owner to
1133 override this behavior.
1134 * If an invalid journal size is given to mke2fs, it will now complain
1136 * Fix resize2fs when shrinking file systems to make sure that bitmap
1137 blocks aren't left outside the bounds of the shrunken file system.
1138 This could happen with flex_bg file systems that were grown using
1139 the old online resizing algorithm.

1167 * Added new options to filefrag to be consistent with the version from
1169 * Optimized e2fsck's CPU utilization
1170 * Fixed e2fsck so it detects and fixes inconsistencies in the interior
1171 nodes of an inode's extent tree
1172 * Fixed a potential memory corruption failure in e2fsck's error path if
1173 the call to ext2fs_open2() fails.
1174 * Fixed e2fsck if its logging function is enabled in e2fsck.conf, and
1175 the resulting file name for the log file is longer than 100 bytes,
1176 that it properly handles this situation instead of crashing.
1177 * E2fsck will now report the amount of memory that it attempted to
1178 allocate when a memory allocation request fails, to make it easier to
1179 track down the problem.
1180 * Fixed a bug in resize2fs which could cause severe file system
1181 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
1182 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks
1183 * Fixed resize2fs to be able to handle off-line resizes of file
1184 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
1185 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
1186 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
1187 resizing very large file systems.
1188 * Fixed 32-bit overflow bugs which could cause resize2fs to fail and
1189 possibly corrupt the file system while resizing 64-bit file systems.
1190 * Fixed a big which could cause resize2fs to corrupt bigalloc file systems.
1191 * Fix a crash while mke2fs is parsing "-E resize=NNN" with the 64bit
1192 file system feature enabled

1202 on file systems with a block size greater than 8k.
1203 * Fixed mke2fs's handling of the mmp_update_interval option
1204 * Fixed e2freefrag so it works on 64-bit file systems, and so it uses
1206 * E2image can now include all data blocks in the e2image output
1207 file when the user specifies the -a option.
1208 * Fixed debugfs's mknod command so that it updates the block group

1272 error if the user chooses not to fix the quota usage information.
1273 * Fix tune2fs so that it correctly removes the quota feature when
1274 the last quota inode is removed.
1275 * Fix tune2fs so that after removing a quota inode, the block bitmap

1278 * Fix tune2fs so that when converting a file system from using legacy
1279 quota files to the new quota file system feature with hidden quota
1280 files, the accounting for these files is handled correctly so that

1616 * The badblocks program now correctly recovers from I/O errors when
1617 direct I/O is being used. The badblocks command now also
1618 supports a -B option which forces the use of buffered I/O, and
1619 the -v option will provide a more detailed breakdown of read,

1758 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual

1801 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
1802 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
1803 (from the Translation Project)
1804 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
1805 non-indexed directories.
1806 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.

1808 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
1810 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
1811 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
1812 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
1813 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
1814 * Update and clarify various man pages.
1815 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
1816 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
1817 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
1818 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
1819 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
1820 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
1821 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
1822 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
1823 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
1824 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
1826 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
1827 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
1828 the block device is misaligned

1834 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
1835 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
1836 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packages have changelogs
1837 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
1838 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
1839 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
1840 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
1841 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.
1842 Both work, but the latter is what is documented in the man page.

1849 * New upstream release
1850 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
1851 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
1852 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
1853 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
1854 table needs to be moved.
1855 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
1856 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
1857 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
1858 space in the entire filesystem.
1859 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
1860 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
1861 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
1862 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
1863 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
1865 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitialized block groups.
1866 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
1867 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
1868 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
1869 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
1870 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
1871 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
1872 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Swedish translation from the
1873 Translation Project.
1874 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
1875 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
1876 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

1922 uninitialized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
1923 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

2078 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
2079 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
2080 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
2081 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
2082 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
2083 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

2487 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
2488 future compatibility with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
2489 even on ext3 filesystems.

2521 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
2522 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
2523 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
2524 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
2525 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
2526 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
2527 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
2528 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
2529 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
2530 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
2531 part of the e2fsprogs package).
2532 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
2533 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
2534 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
2535 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).

2537 characters to avoid garbage filesystem labels from screwing up the

3179 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
3180 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
