make flash-trs-rootfs: "e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!" (Ubuntu 22.04.2)

I am using a laptop running Ubuntu 22.04.2 to write the TRS root FS image to a USB stick for use on the RockPi4B. The image was build on an EC2 instance running the same OS version. On the laptop I get the following error:

trs-workspace$ make flash-trs-rootfs TRS_ROOTFS_IMG=/home/jerome/Downloads/trs-image-trs-qemuarm64.wic.bz2 DEV=/dev/sdb

Upgrading e2fsprogs to the latest version (compiled from https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs) fixes the problem.
