Package: not sure
Version: not sure

When you install a fresh Debian Wheezy using xfs as your file system type
you wont be able to boot because fsck.xfs never got installed so when
trying to check xfs file system on first boot the system wont boot.

When booting Debian Wheezy, the last  parameters at /etc/fstab for the /
file system are set (by default) to something like "1 1" or "0 1" so it
will try to perform a file system check at boot time using fsck. But,
because fsck.xfs to check xfs file systems is not present (it was never
installed), it will never be able to perform the check and the system wont
boot. If the screen will be black. Pressing esc at boot time you realize
about messages and finally the error.

The solution or workaround until a fsck.xfs is provided at install time
is to boot again with the live usb or cdrom you used to install from, mount
the / partition of the hard disk you recently installed Wheezy and set last
options at /etc/fstab for the / file system to 0 0  The system will boot
normally without performing any check on your / file system.

After booting you can perform

# apt-get install xfsprogs

so fsck.xfs is installed

then vi /etc/fstab and restore 1 1 or 0 1 as your / file system options

and the problem will be workarounded.

I dont know exactly on which packages or where exactly belongs this bug
