You may want to recheck the merge, or at least the remaining changes,
since Debian e2fsprogs 1.43.1 now:
a) Uses dh_update_autotools_config to update config.guess / config.guess
b) No longer uses dietlibc
c) Generates dbgsym packages if the underlying package infrastructure supports
them
At the very least the changes to remove dietlibc are definitely no longer
needed for Ubuntu, and if Ubuntu now supports the Debian methods for generating
dbgsym and updating config.{guess,sub} files, it may be possible for Ubuntu
remove (a) and (c) as well.
BTW, note that if you run "make -f debian/rules mrproper ; make -f
debian/rules debian-files" the debian/rules file will automatically
reprobe the underlying build infrastructure and update various debian
files automatically to automate rebuilding e2fsprogs on legacy
distributions. For example, this should allow e2fsprogs to be rebuilt
on Debian Stable and (probably, although I haven't tested it) Ubuntu LTS
distributions.
