Rawhide should soon have 1.34-1. Thanks, Florian La Roche Any word on when/whether this will be released as production for RHL 9? With RHL 8.0, my main machine never took more than about 5 minutes to check filesystems after "shutdown -rF now" or a power drop or other unplanned shutdown. Now, RHL 9 takes 50 minutes (!) to check the filesystems--just a little less than an hour. I just tried http://rawhide.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/ and e2fsprogs-1.32-6.i386.rpm is the only e2fsprogs I see. There are lots of references to e2fsprogs 1.34 for Fedora but none for RHL 9 or rawhide. If a 1.34-1 for RHL 9 can be found, what is the level of confidence that it is safe? Thanks. In newsgroup comp.os.linux.redhat, P Gentry claimed http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/redhat/severn/i386/e2fsprogs-1.34-1.i386.html was the package referred to above, with such mention implying the package was built for and safe to use on RHL 9. Can someone confirm that? Thanks. querida:~ $ rpm -q e2fsprogs e2fsprogs-1.34-1 querida:~ $ cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike) I got the src.rpm time ago(Wed 06 Aug 2003 10:17:28 PM CEST) from rawhide and it works for me without problems until today. |
Description of problem: Theodore Ts'o has fixed into 1.34: "Fixed a bug introduced in E2fsprogs 1.30 which caused fsck to spin in a tight loop while waiting for a child fsck to exit in some cases. This burns CPU times which slows down the low-level filesystem check." Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
