DetailsDescription:
btrfs-convert segfaults on trying to convert an ext4 volume to btrfs. The following shows up in /var/log/kernel.log: May 1 15:16:17 localhost kernel: [ 9376.251983] btrfs-convert[4820] general protection ip:7f1890798058 sp:7fff7fb89390 error:0 in libext2fs.so.2.4[7f189077a000+40000] Additional info: Following packages are installed, btrfs-progs 0.19.20120328-2 e2fsprogs 1.42.2-1 Steps to reproduce: This seems to happen on any ext4 volume I've tried (I don't know if the issue manifests for ext2 or ext3 volumes as well). It's simple to see it fail by making a test volume/file, eg: 1. fallocate -l 10g filesystem.img 2. mkfs.ext4 ./filesystem.img 3. btrfs-convert ./filesystem.img |

I reported this upstream (on IRC), so hopefully we'll see a fix soon. Thanks for reporting :-)

Upgrading e2fsprogs to the latest version (I used e2fsprogs-git from AUR) fixes this problem.

I am assuming the latest version of e2fsprogs being referred to is 1.42.3 and so this is fixed.
