The original RHEL5 e2fsprogs come as four packages:

e2fsprogs
e2fsprogs-devel
e2fsprogs-libs
uuidd

At the above location the uuidd package is missing.

Also, the e2fsprogs-libs package is not provided but instead the e2fsprogs 
package comes with a rpm provides for it. How about the following patch 
which makes the Lustre e2fsprogs packages nicer drop-in replacements on 
Red Hat Systems?
