Re: [yocto] ext4 issues with scarthgap .wic image

[Jan-Simon Moeller <dl9pf@gmx.de>]

Hi !

it is metadata_csum_seed and orphan_file . 

The change was introduced by an e2fsprogs update which deployed new defaults
and these are also used when creating the rootfs with a e2fsprogs-native .

Should be part of 1.47.1 and thus introduced here:
https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/meta/recipes-devtools/e2fsprogs?
id=453249e291817947af3d9cfdf8d1095ad1411f11

Upstream commit:
https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs/commit/
fe341d59ee9696f66ec8cd1bf9615ee1a107824f

We might dial-down the default a bit. But as Mikko said, we cannot stop 
evolution. But we can limit it where needed.

Best,
Jan-Simon
