Package: btrfs-tools
Version: 0.19+20120328-7.1
Severity: important

The  btrfsck  from  the Wheezy btrfs-tools package doesn't handle command line
arguments properly, e.g. >

        # btrfsck -f /dev/vdb1 || echo fail
        btrfsck: invalid option -- 'f'
        usage: btrfsck dev
        Btrfs Btrfs v0.19
        fail
        # btrfsck -a -f /dev/vdb1 || echo fail
        Btrfs Btrfs v0.19
        # btrfsck -a dummy /dev/vdb1 || echo fail
        Btrfs Btrfs v0.19
        # 

< The  argument  after  -a gets obviously eaten.  -f should cause an error, as
'dummy' should. (The combination -a -f is used in the /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh
and /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh scripts.)

Note:  The  Jessie  and  later  packages moved the code from btrfsck.c code to
btrfs.c, along  with a very different argument parsing.  I haven't checked but
those versions are probably not affected.


Cheers,

        Julius
