Bug Description

Binary package hint: sreadahead

Hi All.
I noticed that the 1.0 changelog mentions that this release works on other
filesystems than ext3, but package description still says that it's ext3 only.
I assume this is a mistake.

Yes, but I think that both are wrong! If you look at the changelog this restriction has been removed.
