[Bug 1079791] [NEW] chattr does not understand nodatacow / COW_No option "+C"

[Grizzly]

Public bug reported:

on btrfs:

mdkir vbox
chattr +C vbox

yields

Aufruf: chattr [-RVf] [-+=AacDdeijsSu] [-v Version] Dateien...

-> Precises 1.42-1 e2fsprogs do not understand +C / -C option.

The manpage does also not contain documentation for it. The status für
the ext2 ext3 systems (not honoring transparent compression) is also a
strong indicator that e2fsprogs on precise are outdated, as btrfs is not
even mentioned now supporting lzo and more...

DO e2fsprogs actually incorporate btrfs support? Maybe upstream chattr
must be taken out, as it is not ext-specific any more?

** Affects: e2fsprogs (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
