Comment 6 for bug 978012

This bug was fixed in the package e2fsprogs - 1.42.2-2ubuntu1

---------------
e2fsprogs (1.42.2-2ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #978012), remainging changes:
    - debian/control.in:
        Build-depend on gettext:any instead of on gettext for (cross-building)
        Drop build dependency on dc, which hasn't been needed for some time.
        Update maintainer field.
    - debian/rules:
        Block pkg-create-dbgsym from operating on this package.
        Build without dietlibc-dev, which is in universe
    - debian/control:
        Regenerate with ./debian/rules debian/control

e2fsprogs (1.42.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed e2fsck.conf's man page (Closes: #646963)
  * Fixed 32-bit binary compatibility problem for the libext2fs shared
    library introduced in 1.42.2
  * mke2fs will no longer fail if the /etc/mtab file is not present

e2fsprogs (1.42.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version
  * Fixed various man pages (Closes: #665427)
  * Speed up resize2fs for large file systems (Closes: #663237)
  * Be less strict about the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag (which will
    eventually be going away in the ext4 file system format)
  * Teach mke2fs to use direct I/O if the -D option is given
  * Print errors returned by ext2fs_open2() and ext2fs_check_desc() so
    we can more easily diagnose memory allocation failures caused by
    insufficient memory and abort on memory allocation failures
  * E2fsck can now write log files containing the details of the
    problems that were found and fixed directly.
  * E2fsck can now limit the number of messages issued and printed on
    the console
  * The dumpe2fs, debugfs, and tune2fs now use rbtree bitmaps, which
    cause them to use much less memory for large file systems.
  * E2fsck will now check for zero-length extents, since older kernels will
    OOPS if they comes across one
  * Fix e2fsck's discard behaviour so it does not discard too many
    blocks, and it will not use discard if the device advertises
    that discard does not persistently zero data. Also, if e2fsck is
    run in read-only mode, do not try to discard data.
  * Fix mke2fs -S so it does not corrupt the first block group's
    information.
  * Add pointer for e2fsprogs-udeb to libcomerr2.shlibs (Closes: #665885)

e2fsprogs (1.42.1-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix the fact that dpkg-buildflags was being ignored due to a
    bash'ism in debian/rules.
  * Check the new /sys/class/power_supply/AC/online since
    /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/... is deprecated and may not be present on
    newer kernels.

e2fsprogs (1.42.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * dpkg-buildflags is now used if it is present. This allows Debian
    Wheezy to build with security hardened build flags. (Closes: #654457)
  * mke2fs and e2fsck now use much less memory for large file systems
  * Fixed mke2fs -S so it can be usefully used as a last ditch recovery
    command when for ext4 filesystems that have the uninit_bg feature enabled.
  * The mke4fs argv[0] is now recognized by mke2fs.
  * Fixed usage and help messages for mke2fs.
  * Eliminated spurious bad block group checksum warnings when e2fsck
    falls back to using the backup group descriptors.
  * Debugfs's ncheck command is now much more useful when used to
    diagnose badly corrupted file system. Added a new -c option.
  * Fixed bug in e2image which could cause it to fail to set i_size
    correctly if the last hole in the file is an exact multiple of a
    megabyte.
  * Fixed a bug with resize2fs where for 1k and 2k file systems, the
    minimum file size used for resize2fs -M could be a block too small.
  * Fixed the badblocks program to honor the -s flag when in read-only -t
    mode. (Closes: #646629)
  * Update Czech, Dutch, French, Polish, and Swedish translations
