This is the new version (1.42.6) of the second extended file system management programs. From time to time, I release new versions of e2fsprogs, to fix bugs and to make the utilities more robust. You can always find information about the latest version at the the e2fsprogs web page, which is: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net The INSTALL file has instructions on building and installing e2fsprogs. Provisions for building Red Hat RPMs and Debian dpkg files are supplied as well. In case of bugs in these programs, please contact Ted Ts'o at tytso@mit.edu or tytso@alum.mit.edu. See the e2fsck man page for suggestions of what sort of information to include when submitting bug reports for these programs.

Force the use of the static libraries when linking the test program so
that "make check" works when the shared libraries have not been
installed, and so that we test against the version of the libraries in
the source tree.
