Fixed In Version: e4fsprogs-1.42.12-2.el5
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
To ensure the file system was recently checked, users were required to use the fsck utility before running the "resize4fs -P" (minimum size query) command, even though this is not actually necessary. With this update, the underlying source code has been modified to target this issue, and running fsck before querying the minimum size of the file system is no longer required.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-10-18 15:47:01 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the
current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this
request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support
representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant,
in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
