The fsck wrapper from util-linux is better maintained, so it should be
preferred. In particular, systemd relies on features in the util-linux
fsck wrapper that don't exist in the e2fsprogs one. However, since
e2fsprogs depends on util-linux, the one from e2fsprogs currently has
precedence. So in order to have e2fsck from e2fsprogs and the fsck
wrapper from util-linux, we disable e2fsprogs' fsck if the one from
util-linux is selected.

So far we attempted to solve the conflicts between busybox and e2fsprogs
by removing busybox programs from /bin and /sbin, leaving the e2fsprogs
ones at /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. This fails with BR2_ROOTFS_MERGED_USR=y,
leading to situations like the one described in bug 9436.
We could provide a better solution by means of a fine-grained selection
of programs, like util-linux does, but this would require big changes in
e2fsprogs. So instead of resorting to dirty tricks we switch to a more
pragmatic approach:
- Drop all configs to select/deselect utilities without corresponding
enable/disable options to the configure script. In other words, we
always install the basic set of utilities.
- fsck has a configure option, so use it. Note that --enable-fsck is
only about the wrapper, not about e2fsck.
- Install e2fsprogs utilities at /bin and /sbin, overriding the ones
eventually installed by busybox.
- Let the e2fsprogs build system create the symlinks mkfs.ext2 -> mke2fs
etc. fsck.ext4dev and mkfs.ext4dev were dropped in version 1.43.4.
Notice that these changes do exactly the opposite of what is requested
in bug 9436. On the other hand the policy for e2fsprogs becomes coherent
with the one for util-linux: busybox never wins.

Commit 006a328ad6 ("util-linux: fix build with ncurses") removed

This commit fixes all such reverse dependencies by removing dependency

The e2fsprogs package's findfs option provides no capabilities. When the
option is selected, a symbolic link is generated from findfs to e2label;
however, e2label will not handle findfs since the respective code is
explicitly disabled when `--disable-libblkid` is passed in. At this
time, the e2fsprogs package only supports findfs capabilities when
building its "private blkid library".
Note that the `--disable-libblkid` configuration argument must remain
to prevent conflicts with util-linux's libblkid and an e2fsprogs-
generated variant (see e1ffc2f791).
Since e2fsprogs cannot provide findfs capabilities, the option is being
removed in this change. A following change will be introduced to include
util-linux's findfs utility.

The libblkid library in util-linux uses fork. While it seems
potentially possible to disable the parts of the library that use fork
(the only parts using fork are parts related to LVM and Device Mapper,
which are said to be legacy as they are replaced by sysfs based
scanning, instead of having to fork to run a separate process).
However, since libblkid is used by:
- e2fsprogs, which uses lots of fork all over the place
- udev, which most likely will also need fork
There is not much point in making libblkid fork-less. As a
consequence, this commit makes util-linux/libblkid unavailable on
non-MMU architectures, and propagates the relevant dependency to the
reverse dependencies of libblkid.
This fixes the e2fsprogs build failure seen on Blackfin. The failure
was due to a configure test of e2fsprogs which was trying to link a
small test program against libblkid, which failed because there was an
undefined reference to fork() in the libblkid code.

In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.
