The ChangeLog mentions these tools added as 'optional', so likely
a dependency is not the right thing here.
Right next to the mkfs.ext* commands we find the reiserfs and xfs
equivalents, and reiserfsprogs and xfsprogs are listed under
Suggests relationship.

My conclusion is thus that adding e2fsprogs to Suggests seem to be
the proper fix.
