Am I missing something? Ted, I'm using "master" branch for my tests, and debian probably using "debian/master" . Even test count is differ. In master branch 366 tests and in "debian/master" 356 tests. $ git br -vvv debian/master 0ba96395 [origin/debian/master] debian/patches: update for 1.45.5-2 release * master 32d33132 [origin/master] Merge branch 'maint' into next Can you please try master branch on any (sparc64 or ppc64) debian porter boxes? (There's new ppc64 porter box coming soon) Or on ppc64/sparc64 "gcc compile test" farm machines? And it's actually up to you, maybe my patch is irrelevant (and sorry for the noise then), since i don't know internals for e2fsprogs. Thanks.
