Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Thibaut Paumard <paumard@users.sourceforge.net> * Package name : zerofree Version : 1.0.1 Upstream Author : R M Yorston * URL : http://intgat.tigress.co.uk/rmy/uml/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : zero free blocks from ext2/3 filesystemsZerofree finds the unallocated, non-zeroed blocks in an ext2 or ext3 filesystem and fills them by zeroes. This is useful if the device on which this filesystem resides is a disk image. In this case, depending on the type of disk image, a secondary utility may be able to reduce the size of the disk image after zerofree has been run.
Zerofree has been written to be run from GNU/Linux systems installed as guest OSes inside a virtual machine. If this is not yourr case (in particular if you do not understand the previous sentence), you almost certainly don't need this package.
Thibaut.
