Bug Description

When trying to use make_ext4fs command(through the mkuserimg script), it errors out with "can't set android permissions - built without android support", solution was to compile from source and add "-Icore/include -DANDROID" parameter, works fine.

What i ran to reproduce this was "mkuserimg -s /media/carson/img sparse-system.img ext4 /tmp 1309M"

Ubuntu 13.10
android-tools-fsutils

summary: - the make_ext4fs command needs recompiling with -Icore/include -DANDROID
- parameter or it results ina android permissions error
+ make_ext4fs results in "can't set android permissions - built without
+ android support"

Also affects 14.04. Why still not fixed? Is it too hard to recompile little piece of sources with right options?

Wtf? Bug still present in 15.04?
If it said "android"-tools-fs... why it is not compiled with "android" support? Is it a joke?
