Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: e2fsprogs
Altough the porpouse of mkfs and co. is clear, sometimes non-english
speakers suffer a confusion with the similities of "mkfs" and "fsck"
(phonetically). Me myself not been a newbie have made the mistake of
executing mkfs instead os fsck a couple of times :(
I'd be nice if mkfs and friends provide an "Are you sure?" prompt before
doing all the work.
I'll attach a patch for the current gutsy version (1.40.2-1ubuntu1).
** Affects: e2fsprogs (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
