Title:
  Error message is written to stdout

Status in e2fsprogs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 dev with e2fsprogs 1.42.9-3ubuntu1 and I have
  encountered an error message which is written to stdout. Here is the
  output:

  root at ubuntu:~# e4defrag -c /var/cache/dictionaries-common/ispell-dicts-list.txt
   This file(/var/cache/dictionaries-common/ispell-dicts-list.txt) can't be defragmented.
   Done.
  root at ubuntu:~# echo $?
  1

  
  If I'm forwarding now stdout I will get this:

  root at ubuntu:~# e4defrag -c /var/cache/dictionaries-common/ispell-dicts-list.txt > /dev/null
  root at ubuntu:~# echo $?
  1

  
  I think the message should be written to stderr instead of stdout.
