Packager advisory: new e2fsprogs issue which breaks boot

[Teo Mrnjavac]

Hello team,

looks like you're getting a second advisory email from me today.

This time it's about e2fsprogs 1.43 and later, which ships with some new flags
in /etc/mke2fs.conf, which in turn make ext4 file systems unbootable with some
bootloaders.
This issue was first discovered a while ago by Rohan Garg, but apparently it
only started impacting us more recently as e2fsprogs 1.43 got more common. It
has nothing to do with Calamares or KPMcore.
Please see the Calamares wiki for a more detailed description and a
workaround:

Cheers,
