New new plan, ngompa built it for us in Fedora copr.
sudo dnf install
https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/ngompa/btrfsprogs-robu...
That will replace your btrfs-progs with josef's special repo with the
better -w. Later, you can revert back to the original:
sudo dnf install
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/btrfs-progs/5.9/1.fc33/x86_6...
But there's no urgency to revert, it's the same thing just with this
btrfs-image enhancement.
Can you tell me how you are planning to use the metadata image ?
Are you going to mount it with losetup and then run btrfs-check on it ?
I am asking because I can perform the checks from my side.
