When I try to install it, I get the same problem. I guess somethings in
one of the header files it delivers has been changed in the recent
update of ext2fsprogs-libs from 1.41.14 to 1.42_pre0702. That was two
days ago, so might this be the reason for dump failing in the first place?
You could try to downgrade ext2fsprogs-libs, but don't unmerge it first,
I think this will break all sorts of things.
Someone should report a bug... if noone volunteers, I'll do this myself
some time tomorrow.
