SRU verification for Lucid:
I have reproduced the problem with e2fsprogs 1.41.11-1ubuntu2 in lucid and have verified that the version of e2fsprogs 1.41.11-1ubuntu2.1 in -proposed fixes the issue.

Marking as verification-done


** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: e2fsprogs
  
  "Parents": Bug #571707 and Bug #577331
  
  PROBLEM
  
  Whenever fsck is cancelled by user, this error message is given:
  "fsck.ext4: Inode bitmap not loaded while setting block group checksum info"
  And the exit status of fsck is 8
  
  (This leads to plymouth/mountall reporting "Serious errors" on the
  filesystem in question when fsck is cancelled during boot, and acting
  accordingly.)
  
  TEST CASE
+ 1. Force a fsck at boot time
+   $ sudo touch /forcefsck
+ 2. Reboot your system
+ 3. When the 'Checking filesystem' prompt is displayed press 'C' to cancel
+ 4. Finish the boot sequence
+ 5. Check the content of /var/log/boot.log
  
- $ sudo fsck -f /dev/sda1
- [Ctrl+C]
- *error is reported
- !error should not be reported(?)
+ VERIFICATION-DONE
+ The boot.log contains
+ -----
+ fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
+ User cancelled filesystem checks
+ /dev/sda1: e2fsck canceled.
+ mountall: fsck / [235] terminated with status 32
+ -----
+ 
+ VERIFICATION-FAILED
+ The boot.log contains
+ -----
+ fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
+ User cancelled filesystem checks
+ /dev/sda1: e2fsck canceled.
+ fsck.ext4: Inode bitmap not loaded while setting block group checksum info
+ mountall: fsck / [234] terminated with status 8

  OBSERVATIONS
  
  Seen on both lucid and maverick in virtualbox, and confirmed by Benjamin
  Kay on lucid non-virtual (
  https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/mountall/+bug/577331/comments/21
  )
  
  Same error is seen when running from maintenance shell on boot, or
  liveCD.
