(Addresses Google +Bugs 62791459 and 638037607) + +Fix how backup superblocks are written in big endian systems so they +are all correctly byte swapped. + +Fixed tune2fs's support for enabling and disabling project quota. + +The badblock program now properly handles languages which have +multi-column wide character such as Chinese. (Addresses Debian Bug: +#860926) + +The mke2fs -U option now accepts "null", "clear", "random", or "time" +just as tune2fs's -U option. + +Fix e2fsck's -E bmap2extent feature (which converts a file to use +extents from indirect block maps) so that it handles sparse files correctly. + +Fix libext2fs to correctly handle accounting for an external xattr +block on bigalloc file systems. + +Fix e2fsck to correctly handle quota accounting when deleting files +that have multiply-claimed blocks pass 1b. + +Fix potential buffer overrun bug in e2fsck when using 128 byte inodes. +(Addresses Google Bug 37326362). + +E2fsck's extent tree optimization can now be disabled via an +command-line extended option or via an e2fsck.conf configuration +parameter. + +The e2fsck program now properly updates the quota accounting when +optimizing the extent tree. (Addresses Google Bug 36391645) + +Fix some error handling in e4crypt when operating on keyring ID's. + +Fix e2fsck's quota handling when the bigalloc feature is enabled. + +The libext2fs file system now uses readahead when opening file systems +to speed up opening very large file systems with the meta_bg option. + +If e2fsck logging is enabled, e2fsck will report the exit code in the +last line of the log file. + +Debugfs can now open file systems with a bad superblock checksum, and +the show_super_stats command will print the expected checksum. + +Fix a regression introduced in e2fsprogs 1.43.4 where tune2fs was not +able to correctly enable the quota feature. (Addresses Debian Bug +#855417) + +E2fsck will only return an exit status code of 1 if it has fixed a +file system corruption. If it only performed an optimal optimization +of internal file system metadata, it will now return 0. + +Fix e2fsck so it won't check inode fields of deleted inodes. This was +mostly harmless, but the addition of a check in 1.43.4 to enforce the +requirement that inline data inodes have a system.data attribute +caused a regression in xfstests generic/079. Fix this and a number of +other checks which could lead to false positive reports of file system +corruption. + +Removed a debugging printf in libsupport which could result to some +extraneous and confusing output if the user specifies a quota type. + +The debugfs logdump command now accepts a new -S option which will +cause it to print information about the journal superblock. + +Added a missing space in debugfs's ls -l output to separate the size +and date fields. + +Update the Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, Hungarian, Polish, Serbian, +Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese translations. + +Update various man pages. (Addresses Debian Bugs #867895 and #865584) + +Fix various compiler and UBSAN warnings. + +Fixed various Debian Packaging Issues.
