Dave,

I attempted to use e2fsprogs-1.41.14 but with the same result.  Compilation
stops looking for utime.h.  I checked the md5 sums, they're OK.

I don't think the issue is with e2fsprogs itself but with what ever
installed utime.h (one version of which happens to be located at
${CLFS}/usr/include/linux/) or the configure arguments.  Possibly GCC,
kernel headers, and uClibc play into this somewhere as well, but that's just
baseless conjecture on my part right now.

This may be a bug that's only showing up on some architecutres in the
embedded book.   I've not tried anything but ARM.  I'll do some more
investigation this week.  I'm using GCC 4.5.1

"make" ends with:
making all in debugfs
make[2]: Entering directory
`/home/andrew/clfs-embedded/filesystem/sources/e2fsprogs-1.41.14/build/debugfs'
        MK_CMDS debug_cmds.c

        CC ../../debugfs/lsdel.c
        CC ../../debugfs/dump.c
../../debugfs/dump.c:22:19: fatal error: utime.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

My GCC is:
$ arm-unknown-linux-uclibc-gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix

I'm using uClibc 0.9.31 with the CLFS embedded 20101128 config patch.
Busybox built fine for me.

Thanks,
Andrew
