I had a bunch of these bad files when I tried to install the picons
package.  The installation just froze up and when I tried to remove the
package, a number of files were left over.  In a color-ls they showed up
as yellow with the initial attribute as "c" and some "S" bits set as well.
Directories had the initial "b" attribute rather than "d".  The ownership
was set to odd numbers as has been reported on this thread.

The debugfs command worked, with the folloing results:

At this point, the file was gone but the errors I recieved have made me
somewhat uneasy.  I think I will check the file system again thoroughly!

Just wanted to chime in with my experience with debugfs.

Cheers,

Carlo
