Can I ask to add e2fsprogs to %base-packages? Because there is no
e2fsprogs, there are no commands like mkfs.ext2 or mkfs.ext4 in
the user profile during the installation. Commands are in
/gnu/store/*e2fsprogs*/sbin/ and are usable. But it would be
more convenient to have them available in the user profile.
