  • dosfstools (3.0.28-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version 3.0.28
        - interactive repair mode is now the default for fsck.fat, ending
          confusion about the previous default mode that looked like interactive
          repair but never offered the option at the end to actually modify the
          filesystem (Closes: #417639)
        - fsck.fat now checks that the first cluster of a file is not 1, thereby
          also preventing a possible segfault (Closes: #773885)
        - 0xF0 is now allowed to be specified as media type for mkfs.fat
          (Closes: #753951)
