Public bug reported:

Hello

It seems to me that extundete should easily find some accidentally
deleted files

Versions
cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=19.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=eoan
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 19.10"

extundelete -v    
extundelete version 0.2.4
libext2fs version 1.45.3
Processor is little endian.

Context: USB partition and contents of a repertory
ls -l /mnt/USB-b/REP4

The big mistake
export LC_ALL=POSIX
rm -v /mnt/USB-b/REP4/* 
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic1'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic10'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic11'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic12'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic13'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic14'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic15'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic2'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic3'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic4'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic5'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic6'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic7'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic8'
removed '/mnt/USB-b/REP4/Fic9'


the start of the repair
sudo umount -v /dev/sdb2
umount: /mnt/USB-b (/dev/sdb2) unmounted

repair that doesn't work
sudo extundelete /dev/sdb2 --restore-all
NOTICE: Extended attributes are not restored.
Loading filesystem metadata ... 2000 groups loaded.

Searching for recoverable inodes in directory / ... 
0 recoverable inodes found.
Looking through the directory structure for deleted files ... 
0 recoverable inodes still lost.
No files were undeleted.

This context is a reproduction of errors that have occurred in the
French forum and that have not been resolved. I think I did not make a
mistake in use.

Thank you for your opinion
