Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.43.1-1
Severity: normal
The 'tune2fs -l' command modifies the file system. The man page says:
-l List the contents of the filesystem superblock, including the
current values of the parameters that can be set via this program.
To recreate the problem:
# stat --format=%y /
2016-07-15 07:23:18.767919229 -0600
# tune2fs -l /dev/mapper/v1-root > /dev/null
# stat --format=%y /
2016-07-15 13:56:20.703068156 -0600
Interestingly:
# chattr +i /
# lsattr -d /
----i-------------- /
# stat --format=%y /
2016-07-15 13:56:20.703068156 -0600
# tune2fs -l /dev/mapper/v1-root > /dev/null
# stat --format=%y /
2016-07-15 13:56:20.703068156 -0600
But no errors were produced. So even though it is modifying the file
system it isn't checking error codes.
Thank you for maintaining these utilities in Debian.
