Fedora Core 4: FEDORA-2005-870 Important: e2fsprogs System Maintenance

Updated package.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-869 2005-09-09 ---------------------------------------------------------------------Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : e2fsprogs Version : 1.38 Release : 0.FC3.1 Summary : Utilities for managing the second extended (ext2) filesystem. Description : The e2fsprogs package contains a number of utilities for creating, checking, modifying, and correcting any inconsistencies in second extended (ext2) filesystems. E2fsprogs contains e2fsck (used to repair filesystem inconsistencies after an unclean shutdown), mke2fs (used to initialize a partition to contain an empty ext2 filesystem), debugfs (used to examine the internal structure of a filesystem, to manually repair a corrupted filesystem, or to create test cases for e2fsck), tune2fs (used to modify filesystem parameters), and most of the other core ext2fs filesystem utilities. You should install the e2fsprogs package if you need to manage the performance of an ext2 filesystem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: - New version 1.38 - Close File descriptor for unregognized devices (#159878) Thanks to David Milburn for the patch.
