Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.45.5-2
File: /usr/share/man/man8/mke2fs.8.gz

Please add to the mke2fs man page:

** This version of mke2fs is guaranteed to make filesystems that
   support timestamps *beyond* 2038. **
(The user will be looking for "2038" in the man page. Please be sure he
finds something. Thanks.)

"You can use it in full confidence that you will not get such kernel
warnings upon mounting. No matter what the physical device the
filesystem will be created on, no matter what version of Linux you are
using."

"The previous unfortunate behavior will never happen again, we promise."

"You can verify which of your filesystems will still cause problems,
even without needing to mount each one. Use e.g.,
# xyze2fs /dev/sdj6|grep xyz
to find out."
