Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.40.2-1 Severity: normal mke2fs and tune2fs use strtod() for the -m argument, apparently allowing for fine-tuning the -m flag. However they call e2p_percent with this argument, which is implicitely cast to an int, therefore losing anything after the decimal separator.
Given that e2p_percent is used in a few other places, I am not sure which patch to suggest: it looks to me like the whole function could be replaced with "return (unsigned int)(percent * base / 100.0);" because the "double" type has enough precision to care for all cases, but that would render the function pretty useless. The feature is really interesting with today's disk sizes. Currently, on a 800 GB partition, I can only reserve 0 GB or 8 GB for root, nothing inbetween. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.8 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.40.2-1 ext2 filesystem libraries ii libblkid1 1.40.2-1 block device id library ii libc6 2.7-0exp8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.40.2-1 common error description library ii libss2 1.40.2-1 command-line interface parsing lib ii libuuid1 1.40.2-1 universally unique id library e2fsprogs recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
