Package: btrfs-tools
Version: 0.19+20130315-2
Severity: normal

Mew fsck.btrfs:
1. breaks checking the rootfs (#701936, #712078)
2. checks filesystems even if they have been unmounted cleanly
3. repeatedly checks the same device over and over if you have
   multiple subvolumes mounted

Fixing 3. would require teaching checkroot/checkfs about subvolumes.

I wonder though, perhaps it would be better to just copy fsck.xfs
instead?  That's a cowardly solution, but works: a journaled
filesystem doesn't need a full fsck on every unclean shutdown,
which was the reason Unices of old added this functionality.

XFS has this stub since 2006, and no one complained.

Anyway, problem 3. means a reboot takes an hour or longer.
