+E2fsprogs 1.43.2 (September 1, 2016)
+====================================
+
+Fix resize2fs so it will not crash if there is an extended attribute
+block but it doesn't need to migrate any blocks during an off-line
+resize
+
+Fix a crash when mke2fs or debugfs tries to copy in a directory
+hierarchy containing an empty directory
+
+Mke2fs will now use a larger journal by default for filesystems
+greater than 128 GB. (1GB instead of 128 MB.)
+
+Fix an alignment bug in e2fsck which caused sparc64 architectures to
+crash when replaying the journal on file systems with a 64-bit block
+number.
+
+Clarify the message printed by tune2fs message when the user needs to
+run e2fsck so it's clear that the -f flag to e2fsck is needed to
+force a full e2fsck scan. (Addresses Debian Bug: #828022)
+
+Fix a bug in e2fsck caused by a power failure during e2fsck's journal
+replay could leave the file system in a state where if the file system
+is mounted without doing a full e2fsck scan, the file system could get
+corrupted
+
+Fix the logic in e2fsck which decides when to repair legacy negative
+timestamp encodings.
+
+Add a command to debugfs to copy the inode structure from one inode to
+another.
+
+Fix a typo in debugfs's stat command when printing out the dtime field
+on file systems with an extended timestamp.
+
+Fix big endian bugs in the e2undo program. (Addresses Red Hat Bug
+#1344636)
+
+Debugfs's logdump can now properly handle journals larger than 2GB.
+
+Avoid installing the man page for fuse2fs if it has not been built.
+
+Update the Catalan, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Polish,
+Swedish, Ukrainian translations and added new translations for
+Hungarian and Serbian.
+
+
+Programming notes
+-----------------
+
+Fix portability problems in fuse2fs. Previously it wouldn't build on
+systems with older glibc versions where clock_gettime() is only
+available in the librt library, and if libintl is not bundled into the
+C library.
+
+Remove complicated logic which caused a static code analyzer to flag a
+false positive. (A static code analyzer also found a valid bug in
+deciding when to repair a legacy negative timestamp encoding, so
+eliminating false positives is important.)
+
+Fixed a bug where the ext2fs library cloud provoke when a
+extfs2_zero_blocks() is used (via fallocation, initializing a file
+system, uninitialized uninitialized inode table blocks) after a
+different file system which also used ext2fs_zero_blocks().
+
+Enable the unix_io manager in the ext2fs library so it can accept the
+use of a file descriptor. This is helpful in cases where the file
+descriptor comes from temporary file created using O_TMPFILE, or
+passed in from a unix domain socket.
+
+Fix a Windows64 portability bug.
