In prepartion for a 1.44.x release, I've flushed out the remaining bug fixes (including one which caused 1.43.8 to fail to build on big endian systems) and released e2fsprogs 1.43.9 in all of the usual places; it's tagged in the git trees on git.kernel.org, github, and sourceforge, and available for download at:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/e2fsprogs/v1.43.9

and

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs-1.43.9.tar.gz

The release notes for 1.43.9 can be found below.

E2fsprogs 1.43.9 (February 8, 2018)
===================================

Remove the huge file flag from libe2p (and hence from chattr/lsattr), since it was never made visible by the kernel. Remove the description of some compression related flags, and add a description of the encrypted file flag, and the project hierarchy flag.

Remove a misplaced "MNP is unsupported" message from debugfs.

Fix a build failure in lib/ext2fs/swapfs.c on big-endian systems. (Addresses Debian Bug #886119)

Fix various Debian packaging issues. (Addresses Debian Bug #269569).
