The reiserfs thing is really a hack, it's better if the mkfs.* programs
in the udebs be modified to not need any extra switches. We haven't done
that for mkfs.reiserfs yet because (last I checked), it FTBFS.

We have the same problem with reiserfs. Would be nice if something
general purpose were there to install the necessary support packages for
used filesystems. One way would be to add some files
/usr/share/filesystem-support/{xfs,reiserfs} that simply list packages
to apt-install.
