Bug Description

Binary package hint: btrfs-tools

I wrote a small script to automate snapshotting of my volumes, and discovered that even on success, btrfsctl -s will exit with 1, rather than 0. It also exits with 1 on errors.

"btrfsctl" is deprecated by upstream, in preference for the more complete "btrfs" tool. Unfortunately, it's not packaged in ubuntu yet, but you can build a copy yourself fairly easily.
