Bug#797361: initramfs-tools: hooks/fsck includes too many tools
Package: initramfs-tools
Severity: normal
Version: 0.120
Tags: patch
Hello,
Initramfs tools hooks/fsck includes fsck utils for / and /usr, but it
doesn't take `pass' field into account, specifically when it's not set
or set to 0 (as per fstab(5) fsck should not be run against those
filesystems. Specifically one would set that to zero for filesystems
that don't require fsck to be run, like btrfs and xfs.
See attached proposed patch.

Subject: [PATCH] Do not include fsck tools for fstab entries with empty or 0
pass field.
Those fstab entries request not to have fsck run against them, e.g. btrfs & xfs.
