build \"info\" and so doesn\'t depend on makeinfo,
texinfo, and all of tex. This should allow packages
in the bootstrap cycle (such as krb5-mini) to
build-depends of libraries from here.

Wed May 23 14:00:00 2012 jackAATTsuse.cz
- Updated to 1.42.3
- Fix a bug in the Unix I/O manager which could cause corruption of file
systems with more than 16TB when e2fsprogs is compiled in 32-bit mode.
- Improve the support for integrated quota files.
- Fixed a regression introduced in 1.42.2 which would cause applications
outside of e2fsprogs which did not pass the EXT2_FLAG_64BIT to crash.
- Fix a bug which would cause mke2fs to fail creating the journal if
/etc/mtab and /proc/mounts are missing.
- Updated/fixed various man page.
- Updated translations.

Wed May 23 14:00:00 2012 jackAATTsuse.cz
- Added dependency of e2fsprogs package on particular versions of libext2fs
and libcom_err to avoid problems with missing symbols

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 pthAATTsuse.de
- Update to 1.42.2:

* resize2fs uses much less CPU and is much faster for very large fs.

* The seti and freei commands in debugfs can now take an optional length
argument to set and clear a contiguous range of inodes.

* E2fsck will now make explicit checks for the EOFBLOCKS_FL, since we
plan to remove support for it from the kernel file system driver.

* mke2fs can now use direct I/O via \"mke2fs -D\"

* E2fsck was needlessly closing and re-opening the file system as a side
effect of adding Multiple Mount Protection (MMP). This isn\'t
necessary for non-MMP file systems, so drop it.

* E2fsck will now abort if there are memory allocation failures when
the file system is initially opened and during the block group
descriptor checks.

* e2fsck will now report the incorrect and corrected checksum values
for incorrect block groups.

* e2fsck can now write log files containing the details of the problems
that were found and fixed directly, via configuration parameters in
/etc/e2fsck.conf.

* The number of messages reported by e2fsck for a given problem type
can be limited.

* dumpe2fs, debugfs, and tune2fs now use rbtree bitmaps, which noticably
reduces memory consumption for large file systems.

* E2fsck now checks for extents with a zero length.

* Fixed a number of bugs relating to discard.

* E2fsck\'s CPU utilization in pass 5 has been optimized.

* E2image will now skip copying uninitialized bitmap and inode table
blocks.

* Fixed mke2fs -S so it does not corrupt the first block group\'s
information.

* E2fsck will now check the new sysfs interface to determine if we are
using the battery or AC mains.
- Add up-to-date german messages

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 pthAATTsuse.de

Fri Jan 13 13:00:00 2012 tabrahamAATTnovell.com
- removed dumpe2fs-add-man-page-warning-about-mounted-fil.patch
deprecated by this release
- refreshed e2fsprogs-1.41.1-splash_support.patch
- added several patches to fix warnings generated by the check_gcc_output
and rpmlint
- update to 1.42

* this release has support for file systems >16TB. online resize
requires kernel support which will hopefully be in kernel version
3.2. offline support is not yet available for >16TB, but will be
coming

* this release has support for clustered allocation, which reduces
the number of block (now cluster) bitmaps by allocating and
deallocating space in contiguous power-of-2 collections of blocks,
which are called clustered. This is a filesystem level feature
called \'bigalloc\', which must be enabled when the filesystem is
inititally formatted. It is not backwards compatible with older
kernels.

* added support for the Multi-Mount Protection (MMP) feature

* The mke2fs and e2fsck programs now tries to use the punch hole command
as a \"discard\" when operating on normal files.

* The resize2fs program now has support for a new online resize ioctl
that can support file systems > 16TB, once it arrives in v3.x kernels.

* Added e4defrag tool which uses the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.

* Added support for journals larger than 2GB.

* Added internationalization support for libcom_err error table strings.

* Fixed various spelling mistakes found in various output strings found by
I18N translators.

* Update translations: French, Chinese, Germany, Indonesian, Swedish,
Vietnamese, Polish, Dutch, Czech. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #520985,
[#620659])

* Updated/clarified man pages. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #639411, #642193,
[#634883])

* various bug fixes and enhancements (see RELEASE-NOTES)

is not clean.

* 2fsck will check for cases where the EOFBLOCKS_FL is set when it is not needed,
and offer to clear it

* The mke2fs program now queries the kernel for the physical as well as the logical
sector size, and will not allow a blocksize below the logical, and will strongly
encourage a blocksize at least as big as the physical blocksize

* E2fsck now will completely skip time-based checks if the system clock looks insane or
the option broken_system_clock is set in /etc/e2fsck.conf

* E2fsck now tests for extents that begin at physical block 0 and rejects them as invalid.

* The tune2fs program can now set the uninit_bg feature without requiring an fsck

* The tune2fs, dumpe2fs, and debugfs programs now support the new ext4 default mount
options settings which were added in 2.6.35

* The resize2fs program now handles devices which are exactly 16T

well as other problems in a single pass, instead of requiring two e2fsck
runs before the file system is fully fixed.

* Fix e2fsck so it will correctly find and detect duplicate directory entries
for non-indexed directories

* Mke2fs will use BLKDISCARD to pre-discard all blocks on an SSD or
thinly-provisioned storage device. This can be disabled using the -K option.

* Mke2fs now will obtain get device topology information from blkid and use it
to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes. It will also warn if the
block device is misaligned

- update to 1.41.9:
\"All users of e2fsprogs are urged to upgrade to the 1.41.9
version as soon as possible\"

* Fix a bug in e2fsck routines for reallocating an inode table which
could cause it to loop forever on an ext4 filesystem with the FLEX_BG
filesystem feature with a relatively rare (and specific) filesystem
corruption. This fix causes e2fsck to try to find space for a new
portion of the inode table in the containing flex_bg, and if that
fails, the new portion of the inode table will be allocated in any
free space available in the filesystem.

* Make e2fsck less annoying by only asking for permission to relocate a
block group\'s inode table once, instead of for every overlapping
block. Similarly, only ask once to recompute the block group
checksums, instead of once for each corrupted block group\'s checksum.

Tue Feb 3 13:00:00 2009 mkoenigAATTsuse.de
- update to version 1.41.4:
debugfs:

* enhance the \"ncheck\" command

* enhance \"hash\" command

* fix a potential memory leak

* fix the usage message for logdump command

* fix ncheck command so that it prints all of the names of
hardlinks in the same directory

* e2fsprogs 1.41 broke debugfs\'s logdump command for normal
ext3/4 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers, when the headers
for 64-bit block numbers was added. This regression has been fixed

* ncheck command has been fixed to avoid printing garbage
characters at the end of file names
e2fsck:

* don\'t accidentally print the translation file\'s
header when asking the user a custom question

* print the correct inode number for uinit_bg related problems

* will now offer to clear the test_fs flag if the ext4 filesystem
is available on linux

* fix a bug where in preen mode, if there are disk I/O errors
while trying to close a filesystem can lead to infinite loops

* no longer abort an fsck run if block group has an errant
INODE_UNINIT flag

* distinguish between fragmented directories and fragmented
files in verbose mode statistics and in the fragcheck report

* fix a bug which caused it double count non-contiguous
extent-based inodes

* e2fsck will leave some slack space when repacking directories
to allow room for a few directory entries to be added without
causing leaf nodes to be split right away

* fix a bug which caused e2fsck to crash when it comes across a
corrupted interior node in an extent tree

* e2fsck problem descriptions involving the journal are no longer
referred to as \"ext3\" problems, since ext4 filesystems also have
journals

* fix a long-standing bug in e2fsck which would cause it to crash
when replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater
than 8k
badblocks:

* support for normal files which are greater than 2GB

* display the time and percentage complete when in verbose mode
resize2fs:

* fix a potential memory corruption problem

* fix a bug in resize2fs where passing in a bogus new size of
0 blocks will cause resize2fs to drop into an infinite loop

* fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems
tune2fs:

* now updates the block group checksums when changing the UUID
to avoid causing e2fsck to complain vociferously at the next reboot

* inode size resizing algorithms have been fixed so it is not
vastly inefficient for moderate-to-large filesystems

* fix inode resizing algorithm so it will not corrupt filesystems
laid out for RAID filesystems; in addition, tune2fs will refuse
to change the inode size for filesystems that have the flex_bg
feature enabled
dumpe2fs:

* fix bug which caused dumpe2fs to abort with an error if run on a
filesystem that contained an external journal
mke2fs:

* new option -U, which allows the user to specify the UUID that
should be used for the new filesystem

* treat devices that are exactly 16TB as if they were 16TB minus
one block
blkid:

* fix a file descriptor leak in libblkid

* correctly detect whether the ext4 and ext4dev filesystems
are available, so that the ext4dev->ext4 fallback code works
correctly

* fixed a bug which could sometimes cause blkid to return an
exit value of zero for a non-existent device

Fri Sep 5 14:00:00 2008 mkoenigAATTsuse.de
- update to version 1.41.1

* mke2fs
+ issues now a warning if there is no definition in
/etc/mke2fs.conf for the filesystem to be created
+ creates now the journal in the middle of the filesystem
+ now avoids allocating an extra block to the journal
+ will correctly enforce the prohibition against features
in revision 0 filesystems
+ previously would occasionaly create some slightly non-optimally
placed inode tables; this bug has been fixed
+ will now set the creation timestamp on the lost+found directory
and the root directory

* blkid
+ recognize MacOS hfsx filesystems, and correctly extract the
label and uuid for hfs, hfsx, and hfsplus filesystems
+ improved detection of JFS and HPFS
+ more efficient handling of devicemapper devices
+ fix cache validation bugs
+ The blkid program will now print out a user-friendly listing
of all of the block devices in the system and what they
contain when given the -L option

* resize2fs
+ will now correctly handle filesystems with extents and/or
uninitialized block groups correctly when file/directory blocks
need to relocated
+ support for on-line resizing ext4 filesystem with the flex_bg
filesystem feature. The method for doing so is not optimal,
but to do a better job will require kernel support
+ is now correctly managing the directory in-use counts when
shrinking filesystems and directory inodes needed to be moved
from one block group to another

* e2fsck
+ now correctly calculates ind/dind/tind statistics in the
presence of extent-based files
+ now prints the depth of corrupt htree directories

* debugfs
+ htree command now correctly understands extent-based
directories
+ new command which will print the supported features

* Add support for setting the default hash algorithm used in b-tree
directories in tune2fs (from a command-line option) or mke2fs (via
mke2fs.conf). In addition, change the default hash algorithm to
half_md4, since it is faster and better

* Fix support for empty directory blocks in ext4 filesystems with
64k blocksize filesystems

* The filefrag program now has a more accurate calculation for the
number of ideal extents

non-standard s_first_data_block setting

* Teach fsck to treat \"ext4\" and \"ext4dev\" as ext

- update to version 1.40.8

* Fixed e2image -I so it works on image files which are larger than 2GB

* Fixed e2fsck\'s handling of directory inodes with a corrupt size field

* Fixed e2fsck handling of pass 2 \"should never happen error\"

* Fixed Resize2fs bug resizing large inodes with extended attributes
- update README.SUSE: give some hints on enabling uuidd, since it has
been decided to not enable it by default [bnc#354398]
- removed
de.po (updated upstream)

Tue Mar 4 13:00:00 2008 mkoenigAATTsuse.de
- update to version 1.40.7

* Remove support for clearing the SPARSE_SUPER feature from tune2fs, and
depreciate the -s option, since it can result in filesystems which
e2fsck can\'t fix easily. There are very good reasons for wanting to
disable sparse_super; users who wants to turn off sparse_super can use
debugfs.

* Add missing options to mke2fs\'s usage message

* Fix bug in resize2fs when large (greater than 128 byte) inodes are
moved when a filesystem is shrunk

* E2fsck now prints an explicit message when the bad block inode is
updated, to avoid confusion about why the filesystem was modified.

* Allow mke2fs and tune2fs manipulate the large_file feature.
Previously we just let the kernel and e2fsck do this automatically,
but e2fsck will no longer automatically clear the large_file feature

* Suppress message about an old-style fstab if the fstab file is empty

* Change e2fsck to no longer clear the LARGE_FILES feature flag
automatically, when there are no more > 2GB files in the filesystem.

* Fix bug which could cause libblkid to seg fault if a device mapper
volume disappears while it is being probed.

* Enhance e2fsck\'s reporting of unsupported filesystem feature flags

* Fix option syntax in dumpe2fs for explicit superblock and blocksize
parameters

* Add support to tune2fs to clear the resize_inode feature

* Teach blkid to detect LVM2 physical volumes

* Add support for setting RAID stride and stripe-width via mke2fs and
tune2fs. Teach dumpe2fs to print the RAID parameters

* Add support for setting new superblock fields to debugfs\'s
set_super_value

* Add support for printing \"mostly-printable\" extended attributes in
Debugfs

* Add support for the -M option to fsck, which causes it to ignore
mounted filesystem

* Fix uuidd so that it creates the pid file with the correct pid number
- The -M option is now used upstream to ignore mounted filesystems,
this has previously been in SuSE with -m. This has to be changed
since lower case characters are reserved for filesystem specific
checker options. The \"like mount\" behaviour previously in SuSE
with -M has been removed.
- add patch from Eric Sandeen to fix the loss of extended attributes
in large inodes upon resize
- removed patches
fsck-ignore-mounted.patch

Wed Feb 27 13:00:00 2008 mkoenigAATTsuse.de

flushed

* Added logic to the blkid library to automatically choose whether a
filesystem should be mounted as ext4 or ext4dev, as appropriate

* Allow tune2fs to set and clear the test_fs flag on ext4 filesystems
- removed patches:
e2fsprogs-1.40.5-blkid_cache_file_env.patch (merged)
libcom_err-no-static-buffer.patch (fixed upstream with TLS)

Tue Jan 29 13:00:00 2008 mkoenigAATTsuse.de
- update to version 1.40.5:

* Fix a potential overflow big in e2image

* Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
ext_attr feature flag by default

* Teach e2fsck to ignore certain \"safe\" filesystem features which are
set automatically by the kernel

* Add support in tune2fs and mke2fs for making a filesystem as being \"ok
to be used with test kernel code\"

* Change e2fsck -fD so that it sorts non-htree directories by inode
numbers instead of by name, since that optimizes performances much
more significantly

* If e2image fills the disk, fix it so it exits right away

* If ftruncate64() is not available for resize2fs, let it use ftrucate()
instead

* Add support for detecting HFS+ filesystems in the blkid library

* Add supprt in the blkid library for ext4/ext4dev filesystems

* Fix a bug in blkid where it could die on a floating point exception
when presented with a corrupt reiserfs image

* Fix blkid\'s handling of ntfs UUID\'s so that leading zeros are printed
such that UUID string is a fixed length

* Fix debugfs\'s \'lsdel\' command so it uses ext2fs_block_iterate2 so it
will work with large files

* Allow the debugfs \'undel\' command to undelete an inode without linking
it to a specific destination directory
- enhance init script

policy for uuidd

- update to version 1.40.4:

* Fix potential security vulnerability (CVE-2007-5497)

* Fix big-endian byte-swapping bug in ext2fs_swap_inode_full()

* Fix a bug in ext2fs_initialize() which causes mke2fs to fail while
allocating inode tables for some relatively rare odd disk sizes.

* Fix bug in ext2fs_check_desc() which will cause e2fsck to complain
about (valid) filesystems where the inode table extends to the last
block of the block group

* Change e2fsck so it will not complain if a file has blocks reallocated
up to the next multiple of a system\'s page size

* Change e2fsck so it uses sscanf() instead of atoi() so it non-numeric
arguments are detected as such and the parse error is reported to the
user

* Make the e2fsprogs program more robust so that they will not crash
when opening a corrupt filesystem where s_inode_size is zero.

* Fix e2fsck so that if the superblock is corrupt, but still looks
vaguely like an ext2/3/4 superblock, that it automatically tries to
fall back to the backup superblock, instead of failing with a hard
error

* Fix fsck to ignore /etc/fstab entries for bind mounts

* E2fsck will no longer mark a filesystem as invalid if it has time
errors and the user refuses to fix the problem.

* Enhance blkid\'s detection of FAT filesystems

* Enhance e2fsck so it will force the backup superblocks to be backed up
if the filesystem is consistent and key constants have been changed
(i.e., by an on-line resize) or by e2fsck in the course of its
operations.

* Enhance the blkid library so it will recognize squashfs filesystems

* Fix e2image so that in raw mode it does not create an image file which
is one byte too large

* Fix heuristics in blkid which could cause a disk without partitions to
be incorrectly skipped when a loopback device is present

* Avoid division by zero error when probing an invalid FAT filesystem in
the blkid library

* Fix sign-extension problem on 64-bit systems in in the com_err
library

* Format control characters and characters with the high eighth bit set
when printing the contents of the blkid cache, to prevent filesystems
with garbage labels from sending escape sequences

* Fix fsck to only treat the \'#\' character as a comment at the beginning
of the line in /etc/fstab

* Filter out the NEEDS_RECOVERY feature flag when writing out the backup
superblocks

* Improve time-based UUID generation. A new daemon uuidd, is started
automatically by libuuid if necessary
