Last time I checked the thread he still haven't said how he managed to
do something like this. Anyone that does rpm --force --nodeps e2fsprogs-libs
and the complains that it is the distros fault has serious problems.

It's funny that he decided to reinstall instead of booting with a rescue CD
to fix the problem also maybe he is using windows too much lately.

I wonder what he'll do if he hits something like this bug in Ubundu
