It was a bug in package e2fsprogs, fixed in recent versions.
It's missing a symlink from mke2fs.8.gz to mkfs.ext2.8.gz

man page for mkfs.ext2 ??

1997-10-15 Thread Chris R. Martin

I'm in the process of copying my Debian system to a new (larger) partition
and I want to tinker with the number of inodes, etc.  The man page for
mkfs refers me to the man page for mkfs.ext2... but I don't have it!

Does anyone know which package this belongs in? I thought I got all the
man pages...

Thanks
Chris
