Thanks for pointing this out. Ext4 has always supported on-line resize, but when the man page was updated to add and ext4 in the first sentence, I failed to update the later sentence regarding online resizing. I've checked in the simple and obvious fix. It will be in the next release of e2fsprogs. - Ted -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
