I'm not super-fond of extra sub-packages for their own sake, and the extra e2scrub bits are small enough (about 32k?) that I don't believe it justifies an extra sub-package; but that's a distribution-level packaging decision, so it's certainly fine if we're not completely aligned. My plan is to change the Debian package to turn off the timer unit file by default, probably with a NEWS.Debian file[1] which tells users how to enable it if they want at package installation time --- but to keep the e2scrub bits in the base e2fsprogs package.

I'm curious what their concerns were. - Ted
