[Bug 894456] Re: Old version of btrfs-tools in ubuntu

With a btrfs-tools this old, you miss out on a great deal of features.
Scrub for one, btrfs-zero-log being another, and a fix in the
consistency between btrfs --help and the man page but the list here is
quite long. There is also a restore utility in there to rescure
unmountable systems (pull data off a broken FS).

I would really like for these tools to be available on my 12.04 LTS
server by default.

  Old version of btrfs-tools in ubuntu

Status in “btrfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Curernt version of btrfs-tools in ubuntu 0.19+20100601 seems old and synchronized with the latest available from Chris Masson on git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-progs.git 
  Doing so might fix btrfsck reporting errors when dealing with a btrfs partition using compress=lzo.

  couldn't open because of unsupported option features (8).
  btrfsck: disk-io.c:679: open_ctree_fd: Assertion `!(1)' failed

  This is on Precise amd64 but also true of other versions
