- Updated to 1.42.3
- Fix a bug in the Unix I/O manager which could cause corruption of file
systems with more than 16TB when e2fsprogs is compiled in 32-bit mode.
- Improve the support for integrated quota files.
- Fixed a regression introduced in 1.42.2 which would cause applications
outside of e2fsprogs which did not pass the EXT2_FLAG_64BIT to crash.
- Fix a bug which would cause mke2fs to fail creating the journal if
/etc/mtab and /proc/mounts are missing.
- Updated/fixed various man page.
- Updated translations.
- Added dependency of e2fsprogs package on particular versions of libext2fs
and libcom_err to avoid problems with missing symbols (forwarded request 122001 from jankara)

* resize2fs uses much less CPU and is much faster for very large fs.
* The seti and freei commands in debugfs can now take an optional length
argument to set and clear a contiguous range of inodes.
* E2fsck will now make explicit checks for the EOFBLOCKS_FL, since we
plan to remove support for it from the kernel file system driver.
* mke2fs can now use direct I/O via "mke2fs -D"
* E2fsck was needlessly closing and re-opening the file system as a side
effect of adding Multiple Mount Protection (MMP). This isn't
necessary for non-MMP file systems, so drop it.
* E2fsck will now abort if there are memory allocation failures when
the file system is initially opened and during the block group
descriptor checks.
* e2fsck will now report the incorrect and corrected checksum values
for incorrect block groups.
* e2fsck can now write log files containing the details of the problems
that were found and fixed directly, via configuration parameters in
/etc/e2fsck.conf.
* The number of messages reported by e2fsck for a given problem type
can be limited.
* dumpe2fs, debugfs, and tune2fs now use rbtree bitmaps, which noticably
reduces memory consumption for large file systems.
* E2fsck now checks for extents with a zero length.
* Fixed a number of bugs relating to discard.
* E2fsck's CPU utilization in pass 5 has been optimized.
* E2image will now skip copying uninitialized bitmap and inode table
blocks.
* Fixed mke2fs -S so it does not corrupt the first block group's
information.
* E2fsck will now check the new sysfs interface to determine if we are

- removed dumpe2fs-add-man-page-warning-about-mounted-fil.patch
deprecated by this release
- refreshed e2fsprogs-1.41.1-splash_support.patch
- added several patches to fix warnings generated by the check_gcc_output
and rpmlint
- update to 1.42
* this release has support for file systems >16TB. online resize
requires kernel support which will hopefully be in kernel version
3.2. offline support is not yet available for >16TB, but will be
coming
* this release has support for clustered allocation, which reduces
the number of block (now cluster) bitmaps by allocating and
deallocating space in contiguous power-of-2 collections of blocks,
which are called clustered. This is a filesystem level feature
called 'bigalloc', which must be enabled when the filesystem is
inititally formatted. It is not backwards compatible with older
kernels.
* added support for the Multi-Mount Protection (MMP) feature
* The mke2fs and e2fsck programs now tries to use the punch hole command
as a "discard" when operating on normal files.
* The resize2fs program now has support for a new online resize ioctl
that can support file systems > 16TB, once it arrives in v3.x kernels.
* Added e4defrag tool which uses the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.
* Added support for journals larger than 2GB.
* Added internationalization support for libcom_err error table strings.
* Fixed various spelling mistakes found in various output strings found by
I18N translators.
* Update translations: French, Chinese, Germany, Indonesian, Swedish,
Vietnamese, Polish, Dutch, Czech. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #520985,
#620659)
