	You need to send an email message to submit@bugs.debian.org.
 Since the program mke2fs existsts in the package e2fsprogs 
    __> dpkg -S mke2fs
    e2fsprogs: /usr/man/man8/mke2fs.8.gz
    e2fsprogs: /sbin/mke2fs
 the bug report should be submitted on e2fsprogs.

	The first two line of your mail message should be the name and
 version of the programs you are writing a bug report about, like so:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.10-5

Hi,
	[problem description here]

	There is a nice little package called bug that helps you
 submit bug reports (I used it to generate the template above).

 for details.
