Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: util-linux

Natty still uses version 2.17.2.  Besides lots of bug fixes (like
cfdisk's ability to recognize Ubuntu's default MiB partitioning
alignment [1]), version 2.19 introduced fstrim command to discard unused
blocks on mounted filesystems, useful for SSD drives [2].

Such an old version like 2.17 complicates the reporting of bugs upstream
[3].
