(Though not the bug itself, obviously; that one is still on my radar, though I'm sorry to say I don't know when I'll have a chance to work on it. Patches to make the plymouth 'details' plugin support passing through fsck status info would be most welcome.) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
