e2fsprogs 1.41.8-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

e2fsprogs (1.41.8-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian, remaining changes:
    - Do not build-depend on dietlibc-dev, which is universe.
    - Do now allow pkg-create-dbgsym to operate on this package.
    - Use external libblkid from util-linux, rather than building our own
      (conditional on lsb_release, debian/control mangling via m4)

  * Use external libuuid from util-linux, rather than building our own.
  * Cherry pick 9d4bade from GIT maint:
    - filefrag: Restore "perfect" number of extents calculation for ext2/ext3

e2fsprogs (1.41.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * Fix resize2fs bugs when shrinking ext4 filesystems
  * Update debian policy compliance to 3.8.2
  * Update package descriptions to mention ext3 and ext4 filesytems
      (Closes: #535530)
  * Update French, Polish, Czech, Indonesian, and Sweedish translation
      from the Translation Project.
  * If the resize2fs operation fails, the user will be told to fix up
    the filesystem using e2fsck -fy.

e2fsprogs (1.41.7-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix online resizing using resize2fs (Closes: #535452)
  * Fix the filefrag program for files with more than 144 extents
  * Update and clarify various man pages.
  * Fix potential filesystem corruptions caused by using resize2fs to
    shrink filesystems with extents enabled.

e2fsprogs (1.41.7-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * Fix memory leaks in e2fsprogs, including a very large memory leak
    which can cause e2fsck to run out of memory when checking very large
    filesystems using extents.
  * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
    uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
    bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.
  * The logsave program will now filter out the ^A and ^B characters when
    writing to the console.
  * Update/clarify man pages (Closes: #531385, #523063)
  * Fix filefrag progam so it correctly checks for errors from the
    fiemap ioctl.
  * Change badblocks to allow block sizes larger than 4k.
  * Fix libext2fs to properly initialize i_extra_size when creating the
    journal and resize inodes.
  * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the
    superblock if the journal is moved; this avoids an unnecessary full
    fsck after resizing the filesystem.
  * Use the same encoding as the kernel for rec_len == 64k in 64k block
    filesystems.
  * Fix lsattr to exit with a non-zero status when it encounters errors.
  * Enhance badblocks to print the currently tested block number when
    interrupted with ^C.
  * Fix debugfs from core dumping if the logdump command fails to open the
    output file.
  * Harden ext2fs_validate_entry() so that lsdel will not read beyond the
    end of the block even if the directory block is corrupted.
  * Update Chinese and Czech translation from the Translation Project.

e2fsprogs (1.41.6-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * Update and clarify man pages
  * Fix a number of Lintian warnings, including to updating to debian
    policy 3.8.1
  * Update config.guess and config.sub to the latest (2009-04-17)
    version so that e2fsprogs will build on the avr32 platform
    (Closes: #528330)
  * Add an explicit error message if the /etc/mtab file is missing
    when running e2fsck or resize2fs (Closes: #527859)
  * Enhance e2fsck to handle the case where the primary block group
    descriptors need fixing, and the backup superblock is corrupt.
    (Closes: #516820)
  * Add an "-a" option to debugfs's close_filesys command
  * e2fsck will no longer abort a preen operation if an inode's
    i_file_acl_hi field is non-zero.  (Closes: #526524)
  * The chattr program can now migrate inodes from using direct/indirect
    blocks to extent trees.
  * Speed up e2fsck if there are multiple block groups with inodes in
    use in the unused portion of the block group's inode table.
  * Update Chinese translation from the translation project
  * Fix resize2fs so it won't corrupt ext4 filesystem when asked to
    shrink a filesystem smaller than the minimum suggested size.
  * Fix e2fsck regression which can corrupt ext4 filesystems when
    replaying the journal.
  * Add support to e2fsck for handling I/O errors while replaying the
    journal
  * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause it to crash if an inode has a
    corrupt extent header, and the user declines to clear the inode.
  * Fix blkid to prefer the /dev/mapper/<name> device names over the
    private /dev/dm-N device names.
  * Add support for the FIEMAP ioctl to the filefrag program
  * Further speed up e2fsck by skipping journal checks if the filesystem
    is mounted read-only and is marked as not needing journal replay.
  * Add a build depends in the control file indicating that dietlibc
    must be newer than version 0.30 (Closes: #506064)
