449 not needed, and offer to clear it.
450 * The com_err library will now only output a CR character if the
451 stderr is connected to a tty in raw mode.
452 * Update Czech, Chinese, Dutch, French, Germany, Indonesian, Polish,
453 and Vietnamese translations (from the Translation Project)
454 * Add an fsck.ext4 symlink in the e2fsprogs-udeb package (Closes: #571247)

461 * New upstream release
462 * Add Heimdal function com_right_r() to libcom_err (Closes: #558910)
463 * Allow e2fsck to run even if the physical device has more than 2**32 blocks
464 * Debugfs's "logdump -b <blk>" now properly shows the allocation status
465 of the block <blk>. (Closes: #564084)
466 * Make e2fsck's "the filesystem is mounted" message is now more scary
467 to hopefully dissuade users from thinking, "surely that message
468 doesn't apply to *me*" :-(
469 * e2fsck -n will now always open the file system read-only. We now
470 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual
471 exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are
472 smarter than they really are. So "-n -c", "-n -l", "-n -L", and
473 "-n -D" are no longer supported.
474 * If the partition is badly aligned, have mke2fs just print a warning
475 message and continue. Previously mke2fs would ask to confirm, and
476 this broke distro installation scripts.
477 * Fix a bug in libext2fs caused the creation of very large journals
478 for ext4 to be _very_ slow.
479 * E2fsck now understands the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag which will be used in
480 2.6.34 kernels to make e2fsck not complain about blocks deliberately
481 fallocated() beyond an inode's i_size.
482 * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause e2fsck -D to corrupt
483 non-indexed directories. (Closes: #572453)

497 default/broken_system_clock for system with broken CMOS hardware
498 clocks. (Closes: #559776)
499 * Fix flex_bg inode table placement algorithm used by mke2fs for
500 certain specific file system sizes

508 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
509 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
510 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
511 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
512 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
513 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
514 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
515 (from the Translation Project)
516 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
517 non-indexed directories.
518 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.
519 * Enhance libext2fs so it works around bug in Linux version 2.6.19
520 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
522 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
523 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
524 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
525 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
526 * Update and clarify various man pages.
527 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
528 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
529 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
530 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
531 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
532 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
533 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
534 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
535 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
536 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
538 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
539 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
540 the block device is misaligned
541 * Fix a file descriptor leak in debugfs when sourcing a command file
542 * Fix a file descriptor leak in fsck
543 * Round up the bitmap size to prevent spurious segmentation faults on
545 * Fix resize2fs to correctly calculate the minimum size needed, when
546 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
547 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
548 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
549 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
550 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
551 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
552 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
553 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.
554 Both work, but the latter is what is documented in the man page.

563 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
564 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
565 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
566 table needs to be moved.
567 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
568 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
569 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
570 space in the entire filesystem.
571 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
572 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
573 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
574 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
575 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
577 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
578 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
579 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
580 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
581 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
582 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
583 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
584 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
586 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
587 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
588 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

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

642 * Fix libext2fs to properly initialize i_extra_size when creating the
643 journal and resize inodes.
644 * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the
645 superblock if the journal is moved; this avoids an unnecessary full
646 fsck after resizing the filesystem.

777 verbose mode statistics.
778 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
779 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split

782 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will

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

803 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.

1200 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
1201 even on ext3 filesystems.

1238 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
1239 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
1240 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is

1245 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
1246 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
1247 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).
