FIXED. + +This is actually sorta benign. What typically happens is that one upgrades e.g. +a library, and there are still some processes using it (e.g. because it's libc). +The library file is thus kept on the filesystem, so as to be able to load parts +of it on demand. The file is thus marked as deleted, but the deletion hasn't +been effective yet, thus dtime being zero. e2fsck notices this and finishes +deleting the file. To really fix this, we would probably have to really unmount +the filesystem. |
