[artix-general] Actually - it is a bug with xfs root file systems

I have xfs on the root partion 
and when I now boot I get this error

/sbin/fsck.xfs:  XFS File System

Mount: /new_root:  Unknown Filesyste, type 'xfs'

You are being dropped into an emergency shell

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now here is the problem

THERE is no fsck.xfs - it is a shill program that outputs this

artix:[artix]:~$ fsck.xfs  /dev/sda2
If you wish to check the consistency of an XFS filesystem or
repair a damaged filesystem, see xfs_repair(8).

It is a journally file system so it has no fsck

I don't know when these changes happened, but it is no working.

You can mount, but you can not do fsck
