+
+Fix a bug where updated bitmap checks might not be written to disk.
+(Addresses Debian Bug: #883869)
+
+Some newly added fields in the superblocks were not getting byte

+Fix a potential use after free bug in e2fsck when fixing a corrupted
+root node in directory hash tree.

+(Addresses Debian Bug: #879220)
+
+Fix debugfs's ncheck command so that it correctly prints the inode
+number when printing an error message.
+
+Fix a bug in e2freefrag where it could print an incorrect free blocks
+count on a file system with the 64-bit block number feature.
+
+Update the German, Serbian, Spanish, and Ukrainian translations.
+
+Fix a bug where resize2fs's free blocks sanity check could fail with a
+false positive and refuse to check a file system with the 64-bit block
+number feature.
+
+Fix and clarify various man pages and documentations. Also fixed up
+some random usage texts that were incorrect. (Addresses Debian Bugs:
+#880483)
+
+Fixed various Debian Packaging Issues. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #880207,
+#881408, #881590, #881591)
