Bug#804071: initramfs-tools: does not respect the periodic fsck interval for ext4
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.120
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
initramfs-tools 0.119 introduced change [274f945]
hooks/fsck: Remove dependency on hwclock by disabling e2fsck time check
This modifies hooks/fsck to add /etc/e2fsck.conf to the initramfs,
enabling the broken_system_clock option.
While the intention is to prevent e2fsck from complaining about
inconsistencies between harware clock and file system timestamps,
enabling that option also causes e2fsck to skip the periodic checks set
with tune2fs -i. This means that while the user expects the root file
system to be checked automatically from time to time, this request is
silently ignored.
Please consider reverting to the old behaviour, if possible, or
documenting the change.
Thanks,
Tommaso
