Bug Description
Ubuntu Trusty is affected by a known issue in filefrag whereby incorrect block numbers are reported by the -e or -v options.
I have specifically found the issue using filefrag on FAT partitions on Ubuntu Trusty.
The bug is fixed by this commit which first appears in e2fsprogs v1.42.12:
