Bug#764992: dosfstools: successive runs of fsck -yvV show same error
Package: dosfstools
Version: 3.0.26-4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
On a file system not normally mounted that had been checked less than an hour
earlier with the same options with the fsck from dosfstools 3.0.26-3, I
encountered the following:
fsck -yvV /dev/sdc1
fsck from util-linux 2.25.1
[/sbin/fsck.vfat (1) -- /dev/sdc1] fsck.vfat -yv /dev/sdc1
fsck.fat 3.0.26 (2014-03-07)
fsck.fat 3.0.26 (2014-03-07)

I have seen similar behaviour on one other filesystem (normally mounted,
so could be getting corrupted by an unclean shutdown), but not on another
filesystem (not normally mounted).
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
