E2fsprogs ships one which is going to be more uptodate, and works for ext2/ext3/ext4. Certainly if you plan to be using libext2fs (which I would strongly advise for any program hoping to manipulate ext2 filesystem structures directly), you should be using the header file shipped with e2fsprogs. Debian and Ubuntu for example ships /usr/include/ext2fs/ext2_fs.h as part of its e2fslibs-dev package. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
