Title:
  resize2fs doesn't notice the partition was fsck'ed

Status in “e2fsprogs” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gparted

  Running from a live cd image of ubuntu 9.04 through virtual box.
  When trying to shrink a partition (on a virtual box HDD) I got a message saying the e2fsck should be run on the affected partition. It was run and finished without errors:

     check file system on /dev/sda5 for errors and (if possible) fix
  them  00:04:02    ( SUCCESS )

     e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda5
        ....

     shrink file system  00:00:01    ( ERROR )

     resize2fs /dev/sda5 15791863K
     resize2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
     Please run 'e2fsck -f /dev/sda5' first.
  (full output attached)

  Manually running  e2fsck followed by resize2fs ends in the same result.
  Performing the operation on another partition (/dev/sda6) also fails.

  Note: resizing partitions inside a virtual box disk (VDI) using a
  gparted from a livecd is the recommended way
