Bug Description

Binary package hint: casper
Version: 1.132ubuntu0.2
Severity: wishlist

casper-md5check needs libm to run for the single floorl function that
is called in a single point to create an integer. The floorl function
is useless where it is called, the automatic conversion is sufficient.
I propose the following patch, which allows to remove libm from the
initramfs (150Kb on i386).

  * Add myself to debian/copyright as an author, as I've done fairly
    significant work on this.
  * Eliminate casper-md5check's libm linkage; patch from "SurJector" who
    points out that the automatic conversion is sufficient (LP: #293613).
  * Restore showmounts/show-cow option (thanks, Carlo de Wolf and "probono";
    LP: #159006, #290330).

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Add support for ext4.
