I'm going to assume all the AIX files only applies to AIX systems, and is thus not relevant in a Debian context. This leaves Linux/Drives.pm and indeed it uses dumpe2fs, but (as it seems) only if it's available: https://sources.debian.org/src/fusioninventory-agent/1:2.3.16-1/lib/FusionInventory/Agent/Task/Inventory/Linux/Drives.pm/#L53 This makes me think e2fsprogs should not be a Depends, but possibly a Recommends or Suggests. As can be seen near the same location in the code, there's also support for xfs and dos/vfat filesystems. There's no relationship specified against xfsprogs or dosfstools, so I'm guessing either there's no need for e2fsprogs relationship or all three are missing from Recommends or Suggests. Would be great to hear from maintainers on this.... Regards, Andreas Henriksson
