Changelog for dosfstools-4.2-2.9.x86_64.rpm :

* Tue Dec 27 2022 lnusselAATTsuse.com- Replace transitional %usrmerged macro with regular version check (boo#1206798)
* Thu Feb 03 2022 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Drop vim BuildRequires: the test suite passes without it present.
* Tue Feb 02 2021 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- update to 4.2:
* mkfs.fat: Allow to specify disk geometry via new -g option
* fsck.fat: Add code for fixing first FAT cluster
* fatlabel: Do not call parts of fsck repair procedure
* Update warning message about lowercase labels
* mkfs.fat: Read geom_start from sysfs
* Add missing files into distribution tarball- BREAKING CHANGES (boo#1188401): After fixing of bsc#1172863 in the last update, mkfs started to create different images than before. Applications that depend on exact FAT file format (e. g. embedded systems) may be broken in two ways:
* The introduction of the alignment may create smaller images than before, with a different positions of important image elements. It can break existing software that expect images in doststools <= 4.1 style. To work around these problems, use \"-a\" command line argument.
* The new image may contain a different geometry values. Geometry sensitive applications expecting doststools <= 4.1 style images can fails to accept different geometry values. There is no direct work around for this problem. But you can take the old image, use \"file -s $IMAGE\", check its \"sectors/track\" and \"heads\", and use them in the newly introduced \"-g\" command line argument.

* Thu Jan 26 2017 mpluskalAATTsuse.com- Update to version 4.1:
* Now the default for mkfs for filesystems smaller than 512 MB is 64 / 32 sectors
* The parsing of octal character specifications for filenames in the -u and -d 25 options of fsck now works.
* Fixed a possible fatlabel crash when writing a label to an unlabelled filesystem
* Testsuite is now available

* The automatic alignment of data clusters that was added in 3.0.8 and broken for FAT32 starting with 3.0.20 has been reinstated.- Small spec file cleanup- Drop no longer needed dosfstools-suse-dirs.patch
* Wed Jun 03 2015 mpluskalAATTsuse.com- Update to 3.0.28
* mkfs.fat now allows choosing 0xF0 as the media byte which was previously rejected.
* mkfs.fat now supports the --invariant option to facilitate testing mkfs.fat itself.
* Bugs fixed in fsck.fat are a read one byte beyond the end of an allocated array when checking some FAT12 filesystems, and checking that the first cluster of a file as specified in the directory entry is not 1.- Cleanup spec file with spec-cleaner
* Mon May 11 2015 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- fix url
* Fri Jan 16 2015 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- updated to 3.0.27:
