It seems that the fsck wrapper in e2fsprogs is optional (--enable-fsck) so we needn't any extra change to e2fsprogs. It would be nice to add a note "fsck is deprecated in favor of fsck from util-linux-ng" to RELEASE-NOTES in e2fsprogs. > Patch 1 is the initial move with minor adjustments for the > build system. > Patch 2 adds support for the fsprobe library wrapper. What about to move the fsprobe library wrapper to lib/ ? > Patch 3 adds a new option which has been in Suse for some > time to ignore mounted filesystems. We also need a --disable-fsck configure option.
