Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.40.7-1 Severity: wishlist This morning I had a power failure, and on reboot I got told that fsck died with exit status 1, as logged in /var/log/fsck/checkroot:
,---- | Log of fsck -C -a -V -t ext2 /dev/hda9 | Sat Mar 1 08:04:30 2008 | | fsck 1.40.7 (28-Feb-2008) | [/sbin/fsck.ext2 (1) -- /] fsck.ext2 -a -C0 /dev/hda9 | / was not cleanly unmounted, check forced. | /: 10385/60240 files (2.5% non-contiguous), 115168/240940 blocks | fsck died with exit status 1 | | Sat Mar 1 08:04:35 2008 | ---------------- `---- It looked a bit odd since no errors were reported. Reading the manpage: ,---- | The exit code returned by fsck is the sum of the following conditions: | 0 - No errors | 1 - File system errors corrected `---- as well as the release notes: ,---- | If e2fsck sets the clean bit, but nothing else, set the exit code | FSCK_NONDESTRUCT. After all, e2fsck did fix a filesystem error --- it | set the filesystem valid bit when it was previously cleared. :-) This | was needed to make the HURD fsck driver happy. `---- I understand (CMIIW) that e2fsck will _always_ exit >= 1 if the file system was checked because it had not been cleanly unmounted. Since an exit value of 1 is actually okay (the errors were corrected, after all -- nothing to worry about), consider changing the message in that case. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.3 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.40.7-1 ext2 filesystem libraries ii libblkid1 1.40.7-1 block device id library ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.40.7-1 common error description library ii libss2 1.40.7-1 command-line interface parsing lib ii libuuid1 1.40.7-1 universally unique id library e2fsprogs recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
