Description Jeff Spaulding 2016-12-21 07:27:15 UTC
With a fresh install of KDE Neon User Edition (not LTS) with jfs partitions, after the installation apt recommends autoremoving jfsutils.

This is a bad idea for obvious reasons.

I discovered this after a kernel panic - fsck.jfs was unavailable when I rebooted.  Upon reinstall (because the filesystem was hosed), the first thing I did was install vim from a Konsole terminal using apt-get; that was when I noticed it recommended running 'apt-get autoremove' to remove jfsutils.

I didn't notice this on the first install, but I ran updates and installed a few things from Discover on the first time around; I'm not sure if it autoremoves, as I've never used it before.

I haven't tested any other filesystem, as jfs is the only non-ext4 filesystem I use.  If I recall, the installer offers btrfs and xfs as well.  Those may also be affected.
