Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.43.1-1 Severity: normal I have an ext4 filesystem where I wanted to remove the metadata_csum feature, but tune2fs doesn't seem to support this, even though the man page seems to indicate that it should.
The command I am using is: sudo tune2fs -O ^metadata_csum /dev/sde1 But every time I run it, I am told I need to check the filesystem, even though it's clean and I literally just checked it. user@host-->sudo fsck.ext4 -y /dev/sde1 e2fsck 1.43.1 (08-Jun-2016) /dev/sde1: clean, 5312/1949696 files, 3994069/7791488 blocks [~] user@host--> [~] user@host-->sudo tune2fs -O ^metadata_csum /dev/sde1 tune2fs 1.43.1 (08-Jun-2016) Please run e2fsck on the filesystem. Exit code was 1 and nothing was done. Since I now have to replace the whole filesystem anyway, I figured I'd test removing some other feature like huge_file, and that worked as-expected. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.43.1-1 ii libblkid1 2.28-5 ii libc6 2.22-12 ii libcomerr2 1.43.1-1 ii libss2 1.43.1-1 ii libuuid1 2.28-5 ii util-linux 2.28-5 e2fsprogs recommends no packages.
