I have no idea what e2initrd_helper does, but this can still be
addressed in a later patch.
Currently, libext2fs.so.* gets packaged into the "e2fsprogs" package,
which is worse than your concerns, because it drags many unneeded
dependencies into the image.
FWIW, e2initrd_helper doesn't seem to be required during a usual boot
process, as nobody seems to have missed it. At least no automatic
dependencies on the libext2fs package were generated before this patch.
Regards,
Andreas
