Package: quota
Version: 3.16-7
Severity: important

in file quotacheck.c line 722 when call to ioctl fails (for example on device 
with reiserFS file system 
- as I know reiserFS does not support this kind of functionality) value of 
ext2_flags will be unchanged
(-1 as initialized), next statement (ext2_flags & EXT2_IMMUTABLE_FL) in this 
situation evaluates
to true and try to remove EXT2_IMMUTABLE_FL on device with reiserFS. This will 
generate error
"Failed to remove IMMUTABLE flag from quota file". 

FIX:  statement 

            "if(ext2_flags & EXT2_IMMUTABLE_FL) {" 

      should looks like this

            "if( ( ext2_flags != -1 ) && (ext2_flags & EXT2_IMMUTABLE_FL) ) {"

    OR
   
      variable ext2_flags should be initialized with value 0

With best regards,
W.Michalski
