Hello Eric,

I'm very sorry for such a late reply, I was a bit busy with other
projects.. Well, I don't really understand what I should do with the
images now :) But if I understand previous discussion well, my problem
is not caused by code regressions, but new tests which were added
to this new version right? The problems failed tests report are related
to filesystems with 1K block size, so unless I use such filesystems,
I'm safe to skip tests and use this new version, especially since I've
been using 1.42.7 till now, right?

Or is there some git commit fixing those issues I should try?

Thanks a lot for Your time and sorry about my lame questions..
Nah, not lame.  To be honest, I've lost track of which resize2fs
bugs are fixed and which are not; some have been sent to the list,
some have not been fixed, and the e2fsprogs git tree hasn't been updated
for over 2 months.  So I'm really not sure where things stand right now.  :(

In any case, I don't _think_ that this particular bug is yet fixed.

- -Eric
with best regards

Ted, these are the same ones I saw, plus one I think (working on getting
all the info).
Sorry this took a while.  Attached is a qcow image of a broken r_1024_small_bg
filesystem.  Doing resize2fs -M on it twice should corrupt it, even on x86_64.
Sorry - the image as attached is not broken, but 2 current resize2fs -M's break it.

(aside: the test is a bit weird, it does:

echo $RESIZE2FS $RESIZE2FS_OPTS -d 31 -M $TMPFILE $SIZE_2 >> $LOG 2>&1

but specifying -M as well as a size doesn't make much sense?)
