Bug Description
As of writing, the current provided version of e2fsck (provided by e2fsprogs) is 1.46.5 (2021-12-30). The latest version of e2fsck is 1.47.0 (2023-02-05), which I believe contains a few updates to supported features.
My older version of fsck failed to run successfully during systemd init after trying to check a partition in my fstab, which caused the whole boot process to fail and it dropping me in a root terminal. Upon manually running `fsck -f /dev/sdxy`, an unsupported FS feature error was thrown. Upon downloading and `make install`ing the latest release's source, I was able to successfully run fsck and further boots completed successfully.
OS: 22.04.3 LTS (jammy)
