e2fsprogs update

e2fsprogs update

[ng0]

Hi,

why don't we package e2fsprogs-libs? I tried to update it, which fails
with a file which apparently got renamed and/or moved into -libs.
Is there any reason why e2fsprogs-libs was not packaged?

Is e2fsprogs-lib a separate package? Or just another distro's method of
splitting their e2fsprogs package?

Can you share the work-in-progress patch that causes the problem for
you?

I found this text on the LFS page for the latest release of e2fsprogs
[0]:

To set up and run the test suite we need to first link some libraries
from /tools/lib to a location where the test programs look. To run the
tests, issue:

$ ln -sfv /tools/lib/lib{blk,uu}id.so.1 lib
$ make LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tools/lib check

Upstream. https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/e2fsprogs/v1.43.3/

So far it was just a version bump, tried with 1.43.3 and 1.43, I don't
think I need to send a patch for a disfunctional 2 line change.

I've seen this line in the Gentoo ebuild. But my package failed with
libss.so:

make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../lib/libss.so', needed by 'debugfs'.  Stop.

Okay, then I think we should add e2fsprogs-libs as a package.
