Category - Base system
Status - Unconfirmed

Operating System - All
Severity - Medium
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - All
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - Basically libext2fs dont cares if there are already existing system libs (libcom_err.so, libe2p.so, libss.so) and installs its own versions. The package also does not provide a dev/install (usr/bin/compile_et) so other packages can at least try using it.

As example package/krb5 can be build with "--with-system-et" yet, even if we copy the e2fsprogs compile_et and supply it via "ac_cv_prog_compile_et=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/compile_et" its incompatible with what krb5 expects.

So if e2fsprogs is build after krb5, the krb5 libs break and are unusable or any other package that uses com_err.

So the build system libs should probably be static linked and libcom_err, libe2p, libss should not be installed.
