Hi Dave,
Could you please change this to read version 1.30 of e2fsprogs? There were some rare conditions where e2fsck could get confused with htree directories in e2fsprogs 1.29 that were fixed in 1.30. None of the htree-related e2fsck bugs in 1.29 were catastrophic in the sense of causing data loss, but they might cause confusion and spurious kernel bug reports.
Thanks!!
