Here is the PPA for all architectures, please test :- https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-iremonger/+archive/ubuntu/e2fsprogs-xenial
That is currently a backport of the version in bionic release itself, but maintains the xenial mke2fs.conf defaults [creating filesystems without 64bit,metadata_csum] for compatibility. I notice e2fsprogs in cosmic [1.44.2] introduces an anti-crash-fix [filesystems designed to crash e2fsck!]. Exactly what versions should then be considered for xenial-backports and xenial-updates, and if any updates to bionic should also be considered, is another matter!. Debian already have 1.44.2 backported to stretch (their current LTS release), for example. "-updates" versions might not, for example, want to update the comerr development headers and other potential compatibility regression areas, who knows?. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1365874 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 14.04 LTS, 16.04 LTS do not support ext4 metadata checksumming To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/e2fsprogs/+bug/1365874/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
