There have been a few requests to split out the various libraries in e2fsprogs into subpackages:
libcom_err(-devel) libss(-devel) libuuid(-devel)
Note that libblkid(-devel) has already been split out as it is now part of util-linux-ng (thanks to kzak!) - an email was sent previously about that.
The following packages have BuildRequires: on e2fsprogs-devel, so depending on what libs they required from the package, they may need to shift to one of these new subpackages when they go in (hopefully today or tomorrow). I'll send another follow-up mail when it's done.
Thanks, -Eric

This uses libext2fs (for checking if a device is mounted), so no change is needed there.

Thanks for doing this. It is going to cause some confusion between libuuid and uuid however. These package descriptions could be updated to cross reference each other.

I will update to change the BR to libuuid-devel when there is a new upstream release.

Ok, will do so for libuuid. Right now the libuuid package description I have is very sparse ;)

Any chance that in the interim, e2fsprogs-devel could Require: these new split out packages (if it doesn't already)?

For now it only requires libcom_err-devel, from inspection it looks like that's the only set of headers that the e2fsprogs-devel headers include ...
I could do this though - but when would it get removed again; would it be better to go with the short sharp shock and just clean it up in the early phase of F12? :)
It doesn't much matter to me either way, though, really.

At the very least any breakage of the build would be picked up as part of the mass rebuild.

+1 for just do it. There is not a whole lot of point to refactoring the package if dependent packages don't pick up the refactoring.
AFAIR, the only reason postgresql BR's this is because libcom_err is depended on by krb5, which it uses. I wonder whether the separate BR is still needed at all --- shouldn't a BR on krb5-devel be sufficient?

If not, it's a packaging error in krb5.

Ok, it's in and building in e2fsprogs-1.41.6-6.fc12... Release the Hounds! (er, regressions... hope not!)

Note that I'm also going to move libuuid (and all UUID utils) to util-linux-ng in next few days.
You don't have to care about this change if you properly set dependences in your packages to libuuid, libuuid-devel or uuidd.
