This is the new version (1.42.9) of the second extended file
system management programs.

	From time to time, I release new versions of e2fsprogs, to fix
bugs and to make the utilities more robust.  You can always find
information about the latest version at the the e2fsprogs web page,
which is:

	http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net

	The INSTALL file has instructions on building and installing
e2fsprogs.  Provisions for building Red Hat RPMs and Debian dpkg files
are supplied as well.

	In case of bugs in these programs, please contact Ted Ts'o at
tytso@mit.edu or tytso@alum.mit.edu.  See the e2fsck man page for
suggestions of what sort of information to include when submitting bug
reports for these programs.

This distribution contains a subset of the e2fsprogs package; it
contains the base libraries (ss, et, uuid, blkid) which may be used by
other non-ext2-related applications.

This may be useful for non-Linux operating systems that need these
libraries for GNOME, but who do not need the ext2/ext3 filesystem
utilities.

The full e2fsprogs distributions can be found at the e2fsprogs web
page, which is:

In case of bugs in these libraries, please contact Ted Ts'o at
tytso@mit.edu or tytso@alum.mit.edu.
